Note: I'm not selling, I'm interested in buying...

1996 KUBOTA M7030SU 4wd
5600 hrs
Tractor was used to mow for a county under contract, many of those hours spent driving to and fro on the road.
Claims to come with extra set of rear wheels and tires.

Decent shape, no loader...that's all I know at this point.

$12,000

what HP is that tractor. You can buy a new L2800 right now for around $12k brand new. Kubota is trying to get rid of them. thats a fully loaded out 28 hp tractor. At least that is what my local Kubota dealer has it for.

I see 2 strikes against it right away. Lots of hrs and probably had more operators than it's had oil changes.

For a tractor that is 14 yrs old - that's an average of 400 hrs per year - or about 8 hrs per week. From that perspective - it not that high......but I'm no expert..........

You're not stealing it for that price, a new one (M7040su) with warranty can be had for about $25000.00. That said though, if it really is in good shape with good tires, there should be a lot of running in it yet. I'd look closely at the condition of the clutch and engine blowby. The clutch in these tractors are quite expensive because they are a combination pto and service clutch. The rest of the tractor shouldn't have any problems.
