    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    Thanks for the opinions and advice. Headed to the dealer this morning and talked numbers face to face. Dealer was great, explained a lot to me, and gave me a very fair deal. Plus, he's local. When I buy, he will be getting my money and no one else.. I have shopped 4 Kubota dealers and 2...

    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    Thanks guys. Good info here.. Thanks @PaulL, your post was helpful. Yeah.. I'm really on the fence with this. I think I've convinced myself to get the hydro tractor regardless of what model I get. I'm also getting the loader and bucket, R4 tires and a remote out back. That's it...

    Welp... Massey has been removed from consideration. Just spoke with the dealer about the quote he sent me. Based on flat MSRP with no movement or discount of any kind. He explained that Kubota's "cash price" is normally only +/- $900.00 different compared to their finance price. Massey's...

    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    Thanks for the comments. Re: my truck... Yes, I'm not a Farmer. I have no real need for a 3/4 ton pickup other than possibly towing a tractor that i don't have yet, on a trailer that I don't have yet. I had a Ram 2500 and sold it last year because It sat in my driveway and I barely used...

    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    Good advice.. Given my tasks in the very first post, what would you recommend? My fear is buying something, spending 30k, and not getting enough tractor to do whatever I need. The only downfall I can see to buying a 45-50hp tractor is the associated weight given my tow vehicle. That is...

    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    Thank you. Yes there is Rosy Brothers (Kubota) in Dryden about 10 miles from me and Dick Coulter (NH Massey) in North Branch about 15 miles away. Both decent dealers from what I've been told, but then again, I don't have any personal experience with either. There is much more info on...

    Spend my money - New 40-50hp Tractor. Kubota vs Massey

    I'd love to... I have found a used MX4700, L4400, L4600 all in really good shape with low hours. The problem is financing. Based on my research, there are really only 2 ways to finance used equipment 1) Personal loan from a Bank or Credit union - Most large banks don't even offer personal...

    New guy here that is having a hard time making a decision after countless hours of research. This is going to be long... :) I have 11 acres which about 25% wooded. The rest is a river floodplain with fallow fields that I plan to work in the future. Buying additional wooded acreage is a...

    10 acres - what would you get?

    I have 10 acres as well and i'm currently shopping for a new tractor. in fact, I just joined this forum today because I have questions and Kubota is my first choice in tractor. I'm of the opinion that you should buy more tractor than you'll need. I'm currently looking at L3901, L4701 and...
