Hello, just bought a 2014 L3560 from the original owner and did not receive a title, just a bill of sale. Do they come with titles when purchased new?

I'm in Canada, but yes, only got a receipt when I bought mine new from dealer. No title.

And also, no where on any of the paperwork does it say the year of the tractor.

You should get a certificate of origin. And make sure you record the serial number in case its ever stolen.

You can request a certificate of origin from your dealer. Here in Ma. You can use that to request a title from the state. Check your local DMV.

Welcome to the OTT forum Alex. Glad you joined with us.

I did not even get a "Certificate of Origin" when I bought mine new like I did when I bought my trailer
.
Are you on the South side of Crown Point? My son lives in Portage and works in Valpo.

No CO in VA either. Just a bill of sale. I thought it was odd and did some checking. No, no cert due to a tractor not being considered a vehicle that will ever be on the road. Golf carts can be used in some communities and therefore can have a CO interestingly. If you want to have the VIN 'on file', you can have a UCC-1 made and held by the state. Cost is about $20 (or was the last time I filed one, a while ago).
It made me uncomfortable but the dealer told me they keep a record (probably for 10 years, Kubota keeps a record for the original purchaser and I have the sales invoice.

Because on the North side it is all built up and no real farms. The South side there are a lot of farms.
