Hello folks, first post.
I've been doing some research and have narrowed my search down to the JD2720/2032R and B3200 or B3300SU, based on my needs. I went to my nearby Kubota and John Deere dealers today. Was fairly impressed at the Kubota dealer and want to see how their pricing looks to you guys.
First, I have to decide for myself whether I want the ability to have a MMM in the future. I always thought yes, but the more and more I think about it, maybe not. I won't be using the tractor for finish mowing for at least 4-5 years, I wouldn't think (never know though). I always thought the B3200 would be the best bet to retain that ability. Either way, I had them quote me prices for both.
B3300SU with LA504 (loader) and RCR1260 (rotary mower): $13,900 , $3,400 , $1,300 respectively. Total - $18,600.
B3200HSD with LA504 and RCR1260: $19,100.
Got a quote for a ballast box $300, BB1260 (box blade) $550, and DH1060-4 disk harrow $1400.
Can and do guys use the box blade as a ballast that isn't as cumbersome to haul around as a bush hog or disk? Seems like it might be best just to get the box blade vs. the ballast box for ballast.
It was about 10 degrees today, so I will wait to test drive, but I am interested and am curious what you guys think about their pricing? This is the price they gave me without negotiating.
I'm new to tractors.
Thanks!
