Hi there, I am thinking of a new Kubota... I have a B7200 now that I bought this spring. Good tractor but I am discovering that I will get tired of fixing all the little things after leaving my job as a mechanic and going home to my garage. I have a small house lot, but I do maintain a road that is about a 1/4 mile long. Mostly work with the rake, and moving snow around my yard. I am thinking a B3200 would do the trick. What do you think? I appreciate the input...

After fixing other peoples stuff for most of the last forty years I went with a new BX 2660 for the same reason. The last thing I want to do is work on my wore out junk. I think a B3200 would work out nice, get a loader and tiller and you will find yourself a gardeners best friend.:)

thanks for the reply- I called my dealer today and they quoted me 18599 for the whole deal with tax. Unfortunately they also said the the kubota financing will end by the new year... So I am not sure if I will do it now or not- Trying too keep the payment at 300 bucks or less- So we will see. I appreciate the advise.... Ron in Maine-

Well I listed my Kubota B7200 for sale here in Maine on craigslist and uncle henrys. Listed for 6000 and my phone wont stop ringing! Have a guy coming tomorrow after work with cash in hand so I guess I am going to sign on the dotted line for a B3300su- priced with R4's La504 loader loaded tires,block heater with tax for 18599.00 What do you guys think about that? Fair price or should I try to knock him down? Cant believe the B7200 calls. Got to thinking 6000 seems a little steep on that machine. I was actully going to drop the price a little....

Craigslist is full of shitkickers. That's alot like tire kickers but they want to kick the shit out of you over the price and try to get it for free. I hope the fella does show up tomorrow with cash in hand over the tractor.

Eric- yeah you sure are right about that. I hope he does too- I am pretty certain he is serious, I sell and service vw's- It is usually pretty easy to pick em out... almost always in the first 60 seconds... but either way, someone will fall in love and have to own it. I hope. Hey, you interested in a B7200?? haha-

I am in the market for a tractor but need something bigger then a B7200 since its just a step above my 6100. I'm looking for an older L series in the 20-30hp range.
