...$15,800. I went to the JD dealer today and decided I better check out the orange guys.
Back to the L3430 HST 4WD-$15,800
Adds-LA513 Loader $3,400
SQ600 Bush Hog Rotary Cutter 850
SBX600 Bush Hog box blade 450
Dual rear work lights 140
6 55lb front weights 330
Grand total before tax $20,995
Any thoughts? I'm partial to green by tradition, could go orange for a while if the $$$ were really right.
Thanks, this is a great forum.

You can't go wrong with either one, but if you're comparing prices you should compare apples to apples. The Kubota dealer is quoting you less expensive implements (I'm not saying poorer quality, I don't know, but the green ones are very good) and no quick hitch. There were a few other options the green guys quoted you that aren't on the orange quote. You don't have to buy the green implements, however they will work better with the optional (but convenient) I-Match hitch. ....

All of the Major's use short line manufacturers to build attachments. One way or the other they may not be the same color or have the same name but they are built about the same. Why get hooked up with a company that you have to pay extra because it's got a special color that adds a special price to it everytime you walk thru the door! Anyone got a $1.99 spray can? ....

NO, Ken but I will say that Bush-hog is a good quality manufacturer and has a good variety in there line-up of products. I'm not impressed with what I've seen or heard of some short lines. ....
