Used L35

TAB · Jan 3, 2002

Hi I am a new member with a quick question.My Kubota dealer has been watching for a used L35 for me. I just checked out a 2000 with 166hrs. The bucket edge and backhoe teeth barely have a scratch. It also has a Curtis cab and heater. I was quoted what sounded like a fair price, does $26k sound ok. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Tom, I'm not as knowledgeable about prices as some of these other guys, but that sure sounds like a good deal to me.

Tom,
My dealer has used L35,1998,198 hours,well taking care of,asking $32,500.oo

You maybe on to a real good L35,also find out if you could little more about the pre owner and how he used the L35.

Good luck in your quest.

Thanks, you guys. The dealer gave me all the info on the previous owner so if I had questions I could call. It is a water well driller that used the TLB once in awhile to clean up around a well. He needed to spend some money before the end of the year so he came in the 28th and bought an L48. The L35 has had all regular service at the dealer and has lived inside. I think I am buying a tractor today.

Tab, That sounds like a nice tractor. You don't find that many with low hours and the cab is sure a nice bonus. A quick look at the Carver site showed several used ones you might want to look at. I would guess with the cab and low hours you are real close on price. Regional pricing varies, but I would try to get them to come down 1 to 2K.

Good luck, thats a great machine.

I'll see what he can do on price or maybe throw in loaded tires and an attachment. I'm not sure how much transport would be from Carvers, but I know it is way too far to drive the tractor, even with a cab. From what I've seen the cabs are usually about $2k.

Hope your dreams come true on your new....investment.

Would look good next to a new chevy.

Yes, it will kc. It (haven't named her yet) arrives before 11 all waxed and polished. I also got a Bushog 35 7' backblade. Then I had to stop at Quality's closing sale. Ended up with 50% off on their last 5' roto-tiller and 6' bush hog. Thanks for the help from everyone, I have been lurking for awhile, just sucking up the information.

Tom,
Boy, you really know how to shop./w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif I think you got a great deal on the L35.
It will take you a while to fit all that stuff in your profile. Congratulations.
