Kubota Grand L 3940 HST-3
:thumbsup:

Finalized the deal yesterday. Sold my x748 in two days on Craig's list for $13k, and the dealer is going to take my B2620 back at almost 100% of what I paid for it as part of the deal. If you live near Jamesrown, NY you HAVE to give Dale a shot at Southern Tier Trailer Sales. He definitely did me right when I realized the b2620 wasn't the tractor I wanted. I only put six hours on it so it was a small matter for him to take it back into inventory and basically charge me rent for a few months:thumbsup:

New machine should be in the driveway on Friday next week, I'll be sure to post pics.

L3940 HST+
R4 Loaded Tires
2 rear remotes
3rd function on LA724 loader
72" Square Back bucket with three hooks welded on
72" square back bucket with WR Long dual grapple
Quick attach
Woods 72" Box Scraper
Woods PRD 7200 Rear Finish Mower

Picking up the 72" Rachet Rake at TSC this weekend. (I've got a 50" version if anyone's interested in one. Used twice on the B2620)

Should be great. Likely will add the Fiberglass canopy myself and the front and rear work lights, plus put the top n tilt kit on that's advertised here in the forums.

Pics to follow, I'll be stylin mowin the grass this year ......

Dealer called. Third function kit is back ordered until May23rd.... Bummer.

B2620 is gone, X748 left the house yesterday with its new owner....I'm tractor less until next week Tuesday, and the Woods PRD7200 won't be here until the 30th of April......suckville for me I guess.

I'll have a shiny new tractor that can't mow grass, or use the grapple to pick up the leavings from my thirteen pine tree felling session. Oh, and the BB won't be here until the 30th either, so besides the ratchet rake, I guess I can wash and wax the tractor for a while :confused2:

Hope you enjoy your new tractor. Got mine(L3940) a year ago and it's one of the best purchases I've made in a long time.

I feel your frustration. My L3940 was delivered last month and had to wait 2 weeks for the third function. Rains then made the ground too soft for the planned work area until I had to leave town. Was only able to put 6 hours on it before leaving for work. After last year's drought I never thought I would say this but hopefully the rains today in our area are the last for a while so the ground can dry out and I can put some good use on it.

You are gonna love the HST+!!

Dealer agreed to loan me a couple hydraulic cables long enough to use my rear remotes to run the grapple until the true third function comes in. Not ideal, but better than a boot to the buttocks.

Going to borrow the step dads 60" rfm to keep the lawn in check while I wait for my new one.

Oh, and I had the dealer ad a self canceling third rear remote, figurd since they were in there might as well put them all in at once.

Hydraulic Cables? Are they like Electric Hoses?:D

How do you keep the mail from blowing out of the bucket?

You just use the fel to pull the mailbox out of the ground and bring the whole thing back to the house. The bonus is you now need the tractor to go back down to help put the mailbox back up. :thumbsup:
