Regarding hours, we bought our L3560 LE in July, 2021 and even though we needed it and it's been essential for several jobs we've done with it, we still are at only 41 hours. I figure I'll need to do the 50 hour service sometime in July or August. It's shop kept and with a bit of detailing...

Agree, tongue weight on boats of all types is way different than other types of trailers. I have various sailboats weighing between 300 lbs and 1000 lbs and all of them are set up on trailers with a tongue weights of 20-30 lbs, and they all pull like a breeze even with vehicles set up to only...

Interesting discussion. I'll be in the market for a new truck in the next 6 months. I'd like to be able to tow my tractor 2 or 3 times a year about 45 miles each direction, probably just renting a suitable trailer. While the truck won't be a daily driver, it will be used more for commuting...

Very impressive. Makes me want to write a $10K for a new BH92 for my machine. Sadly I have no room to store it right now and most importantly, I'm guessing my wife might not see the value of more orange stuff on the property and less green stuff in the bank.

The L3560 is a great machine - big enough to do lots of jobs but not so big it can't get into tighter spaces. I would second the thoughts on 3rd function and rear remotes. Rear remotes would give you the ability to have hydraulic Top and Tilt which will make working the roads, swales and other...

I'm sure all the tractors you're looking at 0r which have been suggested will work well for you. I love how lots of folks describe the Grand L as the "luxury" tractor. If the HST Plus transmission, more ergonomic placement of the loader controls and rear remote controls, flatter operator's...

My L3560 LE is a great tractor and seems good on hills, or that is to say my "pucker factor" kicks in long before the tractor seems unstable. That said, I don't have any experience with the MX to compare. I would second @jyoutz regarding the remotes. There's so much more to having the correct...

I have the ROPs L3560 LE with the 805 loader and am very happy with it. So far it's done everything I have asked of it. I started looking at standard L Series and was able to get the grand L at just a little more money. So far horsepower hasn't been an issue, but like every red-blooded...

I understand your reluctance to switch to a traditional ZT. We purchased a Cub Cadet ZT with the steering wheel and it works just like a tractor in both rear wheels are driving all the time, but the turning radius is much better than a lawn tractor. Ours is only 42" but they are also available...

As they say "buy once cry once". If you're considering the L3901 maybe go a bit further and look at L3560 LE with the 805 loader. It'll get you more lift capacity if that's a priority. It could also get you into a cab, of course for a lot more money, but a cab might be a nice feature. No...

I have 3 Kubota rear remotes on my L3560 LE (2 regular and 1 float) installed by the dealer before delivery. They work well and I couldn't imagine having my tractor without them. I am sure aftermarket works just fine, but I wanted the Kubota ones. If you search YouTube, there's a good video...

I've made the mistake of forgetting to release the parking brake a few too many times myself. If I'm parked on a hilly spot the tractor will creep on me to. I need to figure how to adjust them so their tighter. Probably should search the Service, Maintenance and Report sub forum on how to do...

Interesting topic. No regrets on the L3560 LE. While I've only put 40 hours on in the past 2 years, it's been great and done jobs I really needed it to do. It probably has more capability than I've discovered so far. Our property is pretty hilly and the pucker factor prevents me from testing...

You're mentioning snow removal and I'm surprised no one has said anything about a cab yet? Of course neither the 2502 or 3902 are available with a cab. If I was clearing a driveway that size 2-3 times a week, I'd want a cab. The LX is available with the cab in addition to the mid PTO and if...

I know you're concerned about size in the woods with the GL, but if you're putting in trails that a SXS could use, the GL will be perfect. Now if walking trails are all you're planning then you could get by with the LX. In our case, I plan to put in wider trails.

Actually, if you add a third function and a grapple which can be really handy in the woods, you could be doing a lot of loader work. I don't have a grapple yet, but it's next on my list. We have 44 acres, 42 of which is woods. It's a recreational property and I've been building our...

I was debating LX vs L vs Grand L a couple years ago and I'm glad I went with the L3560 LE. If loader work is a big part of your plans for the tractor, then the 3560 or 4060 with the 805 loader is the way to go.

Thank you. Still lots of work for me and my Kubota tractor. We need to prep the land and get some grass planted in the next 4-6 weeks.

We're a bit closer to retirement but thinking in similar terms. This is a recreational property for us so we're trying to minimize our monthly expenses related to it. We are also trying to keep those monthly costs down so one day when our two children and their children "inherit" the property...

That is a large solar project. We recently had 18 panels installed on our "barndominium" project as "Phase 1" of our solar installation. We will do another 18 panels next year as "Phase 2" once we receive our tax credit in March from the Phase 1 install. We are 100% electric and fortunate...
