I ordered a Bobcat CT235 today. I like the power and weight of the machine and good reviews. I priced a Kubota B3200 out but for $1K difference liked the extra power and bob-Tach bucket option better. Thanks again for the input. Also the local Bobcat dealer has a much better service recommendation than the JD boys in my area.

Let me be the first to welcome you to the club and congratulations you'll enjoy the 235 I have the little brother230 and it does everything I asked so far of it Very Happy. I had the neighbor over he has a KubL3400 and was envious when he saw it saying that was easy he also got a gear I wish I got that Im like that oh dealer said thats all standard(HST,Susp.seat,ext-3pt,cruise,Rearremotes)
What you got I believe is not even close to the B-series or JD2520 that is more along lines ofCT122 on frame size and mine maybe power wise. I looked and I had compared the L2800 and CK30,JD3032,MF1532,NH1510 when I purchased the 230 which is 4hp less than yours.
I pull a 5' woods all day in the heat of Texas no problem come to think about it I should've got a cab A/C
just need to win PowerballHey good luck with the Cat see ya in the forum

Congrats on the new machine. You got a lot more tractor for the money by going BC.
I'm also happy to see that value (prcie) has gone up a lot since I bought, which makes mine that much more valuable, if I go to sell. Says a lot about how good these tractors are.
I really like mine. It's a little beast. Did some backhoe digging last night. Almost too easy.

The dollar has depreciated 5% in the last year alone against the Korean Won. Much of what we see in foriegn goods price increases is the trashing of the dollar.
