Well, haven't had a chance to respond back about some progress of my order on a 4060: I reached out to Kubota headquarters and left them a message in early August. I then checked out a 6 year old cab L6060 with backhoe and loader. Was very close to going for it in mid August. I went into...

Thanks ddavies, much appreciated. I will give both a whirl and see what happens. Sean

What number are you calling in Kansas? I might give it a try but I am a day or two away from pulling the trigger on a used 6060 and cancelling my order of a 4060.

I have a 4060 cab with backhoe on order and have been watching the local sales for months looking for something close in case my tractor doesn't come in. Nothing until now but something has just come up relatively close to me, a 6060. Would have to pull a loan for part of it (including...

Well, the wait (6 months so far, no end in sight), and the stories of new tractors coming in with issues, have me seriously considering cancelling my order and buying something used....

Hey @lynnmor, can you explain this some more? You got your tractor and Back Hoe but there was something wrong with the BH? What? My dealer is concerned that the Back Hoe is the biggest hold up in me getting my tractor. Thanks.

My dealer is telling me that Kubota is no longer giving expected dates for delivery. I have gone through three different dates, all have come and gone. Now, there is not a date my dealer can give me. They are slowly getting things in no much in the series I ordered (Grand L) and he has not...

Congrats on the tractor! When did you order? I am in month 6, still no idea when mine is coming.

Glad to see some people are getting their tractors.... Still waiting on my L4060 with BH, loader, etc. Entering my 7th month of waiting.

Had a long talk with my dealer on Friday. Loaders are not currently being scheduled for delivery (they are so far behind) which usually holds up the delivery of the tractor. I was going to order a plow set up in August but in talking to him, he strongly suggested I order one now. I was lucky...

Congrats RayMann24. Just heard back from my Kubota dealer: He says Kubota has taken down all expected shipping dates on their computer network!

LOL. Laughing at the Christmas analogy, it's perfect: When I was a kid waiting for some flying, fat old hairy white guy to bring me free stuff, it was a tough. Now I am waiting for some guy who is make 3 or 4 figures a year behind a desk to be realistic about manufacturing and shipping...

I thought there would be a lot of people going through the same thing. Discovered something I did not expect in looking through craigslist for tractors: There have been a number of new tractor's selling on the listing site with very low hours (virtually new). I got in touch with a couple of...

It's funny because I thought I was ahead of the game by ordering everything in February. I did read an article that stated that if a manufacturer places an order for microchips now, it will take 4 months at best for them to get the shipment and longer if the product is not a cell phone...

Thanks for all the responses. Last I spoke with the dealer, about 2 weeks ago, they did have anything. He said that they way the Kubota distribution, they don't usually ship until all the pieces are ready to ship but acknowledged that sometimes the estimates are wrong and they do get pieces in...
