To fully appreciate the differences, you need to go try both, my wife and I did that and quickly decided the GL was the one for us; nothing wrong with the L Series, just not the right one for us.

Anybody out there able to give me a quick answer as to the difference between an L3200 and L3240? I am offered an L3200 (new) from a dealer for 18,500 - good deal? It has a FEL but nothing else. Thanks in advance - Snoho3

very high price. I was offered the L3200 with Fel for 15,500. I opted out the fel( i have one on the L3240) and paid 12,500...

Wow, are the prices really that low on the 3200???

I know it is basically the same tractor as the 3800, which are the newer models of the 2800/3400/3700. And for the last 5 or so years the OTD price that I have been seeing on here have been ~16,500-17,500 for the 3400/3700 w/FEL. And a good bit north of 20k for the 3240:confused2:

Heck, I got mine 5 years ago. L3400 GST w/FEL for 17k OTD. And joined here shortly thereafter. And I always read (allthough not post) in these priceing posts about the abov tractors.

Now you guys are telling me that a new tractor like mine with FEL can be had for under 15k??? and a GL for only a grand more than I paid for my L??

Before I read all the replies I was going to say that 18.5k seemed like a good starting point but that 17.5k OTD would be a good # to shoot for.

Heck, using the build my kubota and just clicking the basics shows

...............................L3200 HST & FEL......................L3240 HST & FEL
................................19,570...................................24,853
and less 10%...............~17,600................................~22,500

Because everyone says ~10% off MSRP is the Norm

very high price. I was offered the L3200 with Fel for 14,500. I opted out the fel( i have one on the L3240) and paid 12,500...

You turned down a loader for the L3200 for only $2000

I was thinking the same thing.

LD1, I haven't seen any prices that low around here.

And yeah, for 2k I would have taken the 5k loader.

Glad it wasnt just me loosing my mind

Actually I don't need it. I have one on the 3240, and the 3200 is my mowing tractor. I don't see myself blowing 3K(whether cheap or not) on something I already have on another tractor larger,stronger, and can lift more capacity...... BTW: i checked my quote papers and it was $4,000 for the fel without tractor purchase and $3,000 with.. I also edited this mistake above.

Depends on the individual, we have four tractors with front end loaders and if I buy another it will also have a FEL.
