    Trailer advice

    Does anyone know how long a l4060le with loader and a 6ft cutter is. My current 18ft trailer is going to too small I believe. Any thoughts or help would be appreciated

    Buying my first Tractor

    Here’s an update, I went to the dealer today and he had a dirt dog grapple daggr60, that was pretty cool. It’s a little cheaper than the lp and it had dual lids. The bottom times we’re also longer than a regular root rake. I think that’s the one for me. It was also nice to sit on the l4060le...

    Buying my first Tractor

    Thanks for all your help, after discussing with the wife, she thinks we need the l3901. She said “you’ll look for every opportunity to be on that tractor and I don’t you need to be going slow as molasses, get the most hp you can in that frame size.” What’s the verdict on doing box blade and...

    Buying my first Tractor

    and as far as a trailer goes I’ve got a 18ft tandem axle (3.5ton axles) with a 2ft dovetail that should handle it just fine. I may be cutting it close with fluid in the tires though.

    Buying my first Tractor

    I’ve sat on a 2501 and a 3901 neither of them had a loader. But I test drove a l4701 and it sold me on kubota as well as the dealer support and resale value. I don’t plan on doing a ton of mowing so I the the 2501 will do, and not having the dpf is very attractive to me as well. I have a...

    Buying my first Tractor

    I’m planning on using it for general chores around the homestead ( firewood, Bushhogging as we say in ga, and maintaining gravel driveway at my dads as well as mine). I’m also looking at doing some side work with it as well. I own a small fencing company and am looking to also pick up some...

    Buying my first Tractor

    Sorry it been so long for me to update, I’ve been very busy with work and family. Turns out the used kioti was a scam. He was asking for a 100 dollar deposit but wouldn’t be available for two week. But he needed the deposit because he was getting so many bites. So now I’m back looking to...

    Buying my first Tractor

    No idea on the bush hog model. He’s only asking $3300. And it’s only a 158 mile drive.

    Buying my first Tractor

    So I found a 2003 kioti lk 3054 pretty cheap. Does anyone know anything about this model. He says it’s got 740 hours on it and that it’s a kubota engine in it. It also come with a bush hog. The deal is almost too good to be true. Any thoughts on how much this is worth? Thanks in advance

    Buying my first Tractor

    Well I the l4701 was the first kubota loader I’ve seen in person. And it is on a bigger chasis than the other L series. I think I’ve settled on the l3901. It was nice to drive one and turn and lift and see how the hydraulics responded. Way better than the green tractors. I’ll be storing the...

    Buying my first Tractor

    well I test drove a l4701 today that had a loader it (the only unit in stock with a loader) and I sat on a L3901. I think the 4701 is a little too big for me being in the woods. The 3901 felt good. What are y’all’s recommendations as far as options go? Extendable arms or quick hitch? Do...

    Buying my first Tractor

    That’s what the dealer is telling me in regards to the hp. He’s got a l3301 gear drive he’s trying to sell me, saying I wouldn’t have to wait for the hst model and I wouldn’t lose as much Power the pto. But they’re still behind on loaders. I think he’s said there’s 22 L series units sold...

    Buying my first Tractor

    Any suggestions on how far is too far for a dealer? I have one about 40min from me but they don’t have any units and are back ordered for about 3months on loaders. I’m happy with the salesman and the service department is always busy. They only had 4 standard L series and one LX on the lot...

    Buying my first Tractor

    congratulations on the L3901. I’m waiting on a few quotes. Im getting quotes with land plane. Im guessing that works as good ballast as well. Im sure I could pick up an old used blade fairly cheap.
