Where did all the LS guys go

Thats about what I paid for my S3010

Thanks for the info snowplow. I spent some time in the U.P. and your pics reminded me of the winters up there. I remember people shoveling the snow away from their first-floor windows.

I think I was quoted about 19,000 for a 5020 utility with FEL but no cab. It has been a while and it could have been the next size down. I am pretty sure thought that it was that model because that is the HP range I was looking for but wanted a cab and the Baytown dealer didnt have one. All the dealers that I went to though gave me the same initial pricing. There is some wiggle room in the initial pricing if the dealer is willing. My dealer tried to sell me a P 7030 with initial price of $40K for $37,500 with Cab and loader but the 7010was already more than I needed.

Now that I think about it some more, the 30 HP sounds about right, but the 40 Hp ought to be about $15k and the 50 is $19K. There was about $2500 jump between each model if I recall.

Hi guys. I am in the market for a 30hp tractor and have been looking at the LS models. They look like a nice tractor. I looked at the 3010 and 4010 models and was quoted $13900 and $19000 respectively. Having only 1 LS dealer in my area makes it hard to comparison shop. Do these prices seem about right?
Thanks.

Sorry for the slow response -- been busy lately. Anyway, that sounds about right for a S3010 with the FEL included. I got mine for $12,900 back in Dec '09, but that was not too long after LS decided to sell under their own brand. I believe my dealer told me then that the prices for the same package would be going up $400-$500 in 2010, so $13,900 doesn't surprise me now that it's 2011. If I were you I'd pay a little extra, hopefully around $500 or so max, and get the dual rear remotes. I bought ($200 after shipping) and installed the single remote kit and really like having a hydraulic top link on the 3 point. I've also replaced the cheesy seat with a suspension seat. Brushing hogging was pretty rough until I made that modification.

Gary or rocknrod,

Anyone have a ballpark idea of what a P7040S (Cabin & Power Shuttle) with FEL would run?

Thank you,

RFB

Glad everyone is having good luck with their LS tractors. That P 7010 is a warhorse. ...

My R4010 is a little gorrila. Both me and my brother are surprised about its capability. Im pushing good sized stumps out of the ground all the time here. Probably wont be able to do that in the summer though...

You guys seem to be the LS crew. I am looking at my first LS. Either the 4047 or 5020. Same hp but the 5020 seems to be heavier duty. I am moving round bales now and then, pulling a stump, skidding trees as I clear the back pasture, pushing snow, moving brush and some dirt. Do you guys know if the 5020 is worth the extra money? The only real benefit I can see is the hydro capability increase.

Also, I am looking at around $26,900 for the 4047 w/loader. I am in Alaska so I expect to pay a little more but does that sound close to your prices?

Thanks for any input.

Hi Joemd11, Price here in Northern Ca. for 2012 LS G3033 is $13,695+tax (HST approx $1,000 more) .(Replaces LS 3010). I wanted the LS 3010 but all :sold out. I've checked with several LS dealers on the West Coast and prices are all very close. There doesn't seem to be a lot of $$$ markup on LS tractors. Let us know when you purchase a new tractor. I'm still searching for clean used 22 to 30 HP LS, Kioti, NH, Kubota, Bransen,Mahindra,etc. If I have to buy a new tractor I'm fairly certain it will be an LS 3033. Gear or HST is the :confused2:big question for me? So I guess I'm an LS guy. All opinions and comments on HST or gear are welcome!

I bought an LS R3039 back in April of last year. Hard to believe a year has almost past. My tractor shopping days are over (thankfully) for now. Good luck with your search.
