We live in Gouldsboro. Moved from the Buffalo area seven years ago. Seems like we get more snow here than in Buffalo....hard to believe!

Yep. You're up on the mountain top and snows up there when it rains everywhere else. We have family in Gouldsboro and I grew up in Mt Pocono. We are in the west end these days.

So what did you end up paying? I looked at the B3300SU but needed the backhoe more so I got the BX. Good luck.

I got 3 prices in the blind: $17650, $17500 and $17500. My local dealer was one of the $17500s so it worked out well.

While still at the dealership. More to follow. Momma looks happy!!!

Did you get the big tires? I wish they would fit on my B3200 but the 1.5" difference in wheelbase makes all the difference.

Yep the big R4s. Loaded too.

Here's Jeff Meinking of Pocono Power Center with her at delivery demo. He knows the product and did a great job from first handshake to delivery. Plus he hooked us up with some real nice Kubota gear.

Congrats on your new machine!

And re: Christmas, if you become overly-excited and sneak downstairs to look in your "stocking," be sure you've got the right pair. Har har....:laughing: (Sorry--couldn't resist. Call 1 (800) "Bad Joke!").

Thanks Fellas. It's pretty freakin cool. I had to run to catch a plane Tuesday morning just 10 mins after it was delivered. Just got home today and got 0.7 of seat time just to get used to it - pushing back snow piles. Pretty exciting. It's got more power than it'll ever need.

Mine showed up today. I took off work early and got over 2 hours on it even though it was 10 degrees with 30 mph winds. I never got cold! Must have been too excited

Just cleared some big snow piles that had turned to basically ice. I was very impressed with the tractor. I am still learning though.

Congrats to both of you guys! Enjoy!

Here is a link to STABILWORKS, producer of aftermarket Three Point Hitch pin-adjustable stabilizers to replace Kubota turnbuckles. Not only do pin-adjustable stabilizers make hooking up implements MUCH easier they are also much stronger when PUSHING a Box Blade or Rotary Cutter in reverse.

Mark Hodge is a very nice person to deal with.

I already put an order in for those. Just kind of made sense.
I am curious to see how much of a difference they will make....
