The fruits of my labor

[TheBigO]

I have read many posts that you couldn`t go wrong with choosing any of the 3 big names in compact tractors. So I chose Kubota, not for any particular reason. Been doing alot of research and pricing for about a month now. I was calling aroung to get prices for implements for comparison in a package deal. One place I called was a blue dealership. We talked for awhile and he said he`d send me a quote on a tc. I received it today.

I`ve got a quote for an L3010hst r4s rops fel for 17500. His quote for a tc33d was the same and a tc35d was 1300 more both with the same equiptment.

This isn`t a road I really wanted to travel. Now instead of comparing oranges to oranges, I`ve got blueberries to blueberries and blueberries to oranges. If I take the next left turn, i`ll throw in apples as well. A regular fruit salad!!! I`ve allready got a stress fracture in my skull from the oranges.

Has anyone done any extensive comparison between the 3 and tell me why they chose Kubota over the others? I really didn`t want to make this tractor purchase this complicated.

For sanity sake, I just picked one manufacturer. I picked Kubotas because I am a faithfull consumer of Japanese cars and I figured the tractor is a similar type of machine (manufacturing wise).
