I'm looking for a gently used L3560 or L4060 hydro cab tractor. Everything I'm finding in my area is either trashed or so overpriced, that purchasing new, might be my best option. But, I have a budget, which I would like to stick too. Anyone know if any are out there by a private party or dealer that has a good tractor at a fair price. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The notion of fair is subjective. Many have found (myself included) that buying new, particularly if low/no cost financing is factored in, is the best bet. I have never had a problem making offers on items significantly below asking prices. The prices of used cars have come down a lot recently I would bet many sellers are wishfully clinging to yesterdays comps. Time is your friend perhaps. Good luck.

A lot depends on just how long you are willing to search.
If you can remain on the hunt for a full year, It is possible that you might find a good tractor within your used tractor cost parameters.

That would be a very long expensive haul from either Alabama or Louisiana to Wisconsin.

350 hrs and will go up, it’s used daily. Nice machine, dirty from use, nothing wrong with it. All maintenance as scheduled with Kubota items. No damage except for grill dent (see pic). One set remotes, rear wheel weights, rear fluid filled, all cab lights, Bluetooth radio and speakers...

You live in a premium price area, expect to pay more than most of the southern areas.
We typically pay 10% to 20% more.
Demand is high and there is not a lot of surplus.

I purchased my L3560 via ironplanet online auction. It only had 127 hours on it and I got it for $18.5K about 5 years ago. The shipping was another $1500. Keep your eyes open there if that sounds like something you’d be interested in. Also bought my Kubota UTV this way. Yes, you’re buying sight unseen, but they have an “ironclad” guarantee where they do some basic inspection of mechanical function. And, you have to pay to have it shipped but you can get some great deals even with the shipping cost.
