Any tractor people here? Buying kubota

[ONE-A-DAY]

Mother in law has a ranch in Aguanga and has been wanting a tractor for awhile now so we are going to get her one. She’s been out shopping and wants a new kubota, went to the dealer in Temecula. I have not gotten involved yet but will be shortly since it’s my checkbook.

So are tractors like cars, msrp and then you can grind them down? Never bought a tractor before. The one she wants is around $16,000 or so.

Don't pay MSRP. You can find a much better deal. There is a great forum to find specific deals on specific tractors. When I was looking for a Kubota, I was able to get 15% off.

Shop around, even out of area. You can almost always get them too throw something in or knock off the price.


What do you need it for? I am gping to assume you at least need a mower.

I have a good friend in that business

Whatever retail sticker price is, they have 20-22% in that

Don't buy the smallest one ,Bx1880 borrowed one from a neighbor that I did some work for. The bucket is so small it takes forever to move even small amounts of dirt. I had some mud come down the hill and filled my dog kennel from all the rain we got out here and it had a hard time moving a full scraper box. Don't know what model it was , but it was 4x4 and had no problem with hills in my yard.

$16,000. Must be a B series? What attachments , bucket etc. ?? How big is the area you are taking care of?

not worth buying without a bucket or HST trans. B series is kinda small
belly mower or three point rear?

I paid $9500 for this L series with 500 hrs 5 yrs ago from a word of mouth neighbor deal. Dealer quoted $26,000 with bucket and box for same tractor at that time.

crazy what clean used (and beat to a frazzle), Kubota's go for.

cant blame you for thinking new

Not too far away, they also own the rental yards and only use Kubota. They would deliver the machine. Don’t know about the prices but the people have excellent customer service.

25k , we bought bush hog and 12”-8”” auger after the tractor they have 0 interest for 8 years we put 10k down but double our payment should be paid off in 3

For our 3 acres we bought a cheap Chinese Jinma tractor for leveling driveways and arenas and light FEL work. 18 years and no problems except for flat tires. It was $6500 in 2002 dollars.

Definitely shop around. We have probably 5 dealers within a 100mi radius. A few people out here have purchased from a dealer in Calimesa, or out that way. Delivered out this way, still a couple thousand cheaper for an L series.

I've only worked on older ones. The only issues they had were electrical, mostly from being left in the weather. Mechanically great machines.

When my wife went to pay for it I told her to take a couple dozen donuts , she said Why ? I said just do it so she did they were so happy no one ever did that for them they gave her the the scraper box Free I have always said you can rule the world with donuts and pizza .

I bought a L3901 with a loader and a Gannon box with hydraulic rippers, tilt, and a roof. $30K delivered to my door and I have no idea how I lived without it. I was going to buy used under $10K and two different friends who repair tractors said I’d have $20K into it and it would be a pile so I took their advice.

This is the one that I wrote about. They have a huge selection and I’ve heard their prices are really good. Their customer service is great.

The Tulare Farm Show is cool. Make.your reservations now There are no rooms remotely close to the event; it's that big of a deal.

There is a Kubota dealer in Parker. Looks like low overhead at that location. Saw a little mini X when I drove by I thought about dragging home. Cheaper than the RZR at Parker Yamaha I liked.

I am eyeballing that same package. Just curious how do you like it so far? Seems like a great deal with two attachments included plus a trailer.

I know nothing about tractors but decided to do a little searching.

He had to pay extra to get a third axle added to the trailer.

My dad and I bought a new Kabota 10 years ago. Shopped around southern CA and at that time Apex rentals in Hesperia was the lowest price and best deals on the attachments. Maybe something to look into. They have both Brand new and well used rentals for sale.
