Just saw your post and noticed that is with the 805 loader. Sounds like a good price. When I deduct the cost of insurance and cutter from the prices I'm getting your right there with the lowest price i was quoted. Other dealers were $1500 to $1700 higher.

I'm thinking about pulling the trigger on the 3560. What did you decide to get?

I ended up buying a MX4800. A dealer turned me on to it because it was a 2016 year model and they were able to cut about $2000 from the price due to incentives they get from Kubota on older inventory. It was a different dealer that offered me the best price on the 3560. I called him and he said I should jump on it. Without the extra savings offered I'd bought the 3560.

The 3560 is a great machine and I was about to purchase it. A couple of things pushed me towards the 4800. I liked the extra pto hp because I will be doing a lot of extreme bush hogging in heavy woods and really wanted a 6' cutter. Also, I plan on keeping this tractor for a long time and thought the lack of the extra electronics may be less trouble after years of service. The 4800 also addressed a couple of issues I had with the 4701. The platform is larger giving much more foot and legroom when using the hydro.

They will deliver it this Friday, I still find myself dwelling on the 3560 a bit. The grands are awesome. If money wasn't an object I'd have a 4760 on the way.

You should be happy with it, it is essentially the old L30 without extendable links, tilt steering et., but you won't miss it if you never had it and as mentioned, it has a nice wide platform and is easy to get on/off.
