Update...I had an opportunity to get a new L3830 for an additional $1,800 over the L3130, so I jumped on it. I also added Woods boxblade (HB72), rear graderblade (HBL84), rake (LR107), and rotary cutter (BB72). The dealer is installing a BH thumb and Kubota light kit. Buying it all at once is saving me a ton of $$$, but now I only have one arm and one leg left to operate it! My delivery date is still 1/14/05 and I will post some pics.

I am taking delivery on a new L3830 in January and spoke with the dealer about the hours on it and he told me to expect about 6 hours on it to accommodate set-up with FEL 753, BH90, and then some testing including a dyno test. Because I live about 110 miles away from this dealer, he wants to make sure everything is to spec to avoid any problems. How many hours are considered normal for a "new" tractor? Being new to larger tractors, I have don't know what to expect for hours. Thanks for the help!

How's that GST tranny working out? I'm open to both GST/HST as long as they are both reliable. Does gear shifting happen quickly and easily. I know how HST works because I have it on my garden tractor, but I've never used GST before.

I just finished my 300' gravel drive using my garden tractor with a rear grading blade to loosen up the stay-pak (which is broken gray stone)and then I made a wood box frame 4'x5' out of 4x4 and nailed chain link fence to one side and the other side I added a third row 4x4 and put cinderblocks on top for weight. I dragged it around and it groomed the stone by allowing them to run through the links and exit. Cost me hardly nothing!
