    Yup! That is why I am looking at the used ones. Quick look shows that even with the LS a new one set up like I want will be about the same or maybe a little more than a used 'Bota

    The difference for me is that I am vengeful. Not a great quality, but if there is some way legally and financially that I could punish someone who wronged me I'd do it if it was within my means. If I was in your position and could have afforded it I would have had any income that guy made...

    Another Am I getting Shafted Question

    Still waiting on a response from one more attorney. I may still end up with a used kubota. I won't spend a dime over what I was promised on a new on though. I have found two used that will save me between $14k-$16k over what the dealer promised me on that 4701. One is a 2021 MX5400 with the...

    Mike, the pill I'm looking at swallowing sounds like no comparison to what you had done to you. That is horrible. Similar thing happened to my Uncle. I am sane enough to understand the ramifications. I was hoping that I could find some lawyer that was willing to just write an opinion letter and...

    So are you saying that it isn't discrimination or just that is is legal for a multinational corporation and it's representatives to discriminate because they do business in more than one state?

    I did try, but all I was able to do was put the picture of the moose in front of our cabin. I gave up trying to change the qequip.

    I have intentionally removed all dealer information. Right now it looks likes like I will need a $5k retainer to even get a lawyer to look at this, but there is also a discrimination suit waiting to happen.This is due to the regional rep stating that since I don't live there I wasn't eligible...

    Yup! Government is paying producers to kill all their birds if any get sick. See the connection!?

    Is it me or is Kubota becoming overpriced???

    Don't know if you saw my post, but the 'bota I put money down on and ordered in Dec.21 went up $8k by the time it came in in Nov. 2022. Want to help stop inflation. Stop buying stuff, particularly new stuff. When the market is full and demand is low prices will come down.

    Dealer Lot is FULL of new Tractors and Implements…

    The dealer that tried to shaft me on my 4701 still has 9 of the 10 4701's that arrived back in November. The local dealer is over flowing compared to normal inventory counts. That one has 4 4701's. The problem is that people who really think long and hard about a tractor purchase are realizing...

    The program date of this is Sept.1, it however also acknowledges the existence of the same program being in effect from Jan.1, 2022 up to the issuance of this document. I believe your answer is in the "Eligible Products" area. All equipment/attachments that are currently in production...

    HST vs Gear drive

    You are a lucky guy to have both of those tractors. I have also read that with the hydraulic shuttle that the clutches do not wear out as fast as the dry clutch plates. I dunno. My 1971 IH2444 with it's 8 speed is clunky, but I manage the little dirt work I do with it pretty well. I am not...

    Received another response from the attorney general. The dealers response to my last inquiry was, "Our response is still the same. He is just mad." The AT now says "As this response indicates, your positions are in conflict and we regret that this exchange of correspondence has not resolved...

    HST vs Gear drive

    Drumming up an old thread, but when looking at the differences between the HSt and the Shuttle I keep coming back to a video that Messicks did with an L470HST and anL4701DT. The comparison was done in High since the DT only has H/L. The HST would pull down to the point of almost bogging out...

    The Mi. A.G replied almost immediately to my last email. It wasn't much, but they stated they will forward my response to the dealer. I responded with the question of what type of response do they expect since the dealership already stated that they lied about locking in the price, the dealer...

    Latest update. Michigan Attorney General contacted the dealer after I filed a complaint because Kubota isn't willing to do anything and the dealer says it is out of their hands. The dealer freely admits that they told me they were locking in my price. Funny thing is that they even provided the...
