I'm attaching the build sheet with additional options not listed in the Kubota build site.

Used Equine discount (20%) and my ag exemption. Couldn't use Kubota financing with Equine discount so went with Ag Direct financing which the Kubota dealer was able to set up.

Congratulations. Now time to have some fun. I like my MX5400 so much, I just ordered a second one.

The ROPs cleared my shed by 2".

Congrats on your new tractor, wow that discount adds up! At least your tractor went in your shed with the rops up, many people have a situation where they have to lower the rops everytime.

The MX is a super capable tractor, enjoy.

Nice tractor, enjoy.

Congrats! I love mine!

I ended up going the traditional financing route. The math was so close with the 20% equine discount that I preferred to finance through Kubota and get the KTAC insurance.

That's good. The dealer didn't even want to get close to the 20% discount. I probably could have worked with other dealers but the price was fine with me and I hate going through the negotiation process.

Nice looking setup! I'm jealous that is the tractor I should have gotten.

Back after a week ban.

I said the same thing for over a year until I finally had enough sold my L3301 and made a deal on my current tractor. I've always heard the saying "Buy one step bigger in the tractor you think you need."

I'll definitely think about that next time. Funny thing is, the day after I signed paperwork for the L3301 my buddy called me and said his Aunt was moving and was selling all of her equipment. She was a widow but she still had employees that kept her property up and used really nice equipment.

She had a M7060 she was trying to get rid of, I think it was a 2016 model and only had 300 hours on it and a lot of attachments. I offered 22k for it, I think she lost track of my offer but she ended up tying it to the sale of her home for 12k. The guy who signed the contract on her home ended up backing out of the home sale but wanted the tractor. He also slipped in a bunch of other machinery she had into the contract without her knowing. Still boils my blood.

It's called theft and stealing from a widow is the lowest of lows.
