Well today I sent out the final payment on my L3700. It's been 5 years and I have to say time flies, doesn't seem like it's been that long. The past year I actually liked seeing the payment book get thinner and thinner. It's got 160 hours on it now so by my math... I should have it quite some time before I need a new one.

Sweet. Enjoy your machine.

Yep, I'm thinking if you ever get rid of it, will be because you are simply tired of it. Not that you have worn it out!!!! :)

TT, now what you gonna do with all that extra money in your check book ?:) It is a good feeling.

After my first Kubota (BX) was paid off, I went to the dealership to visit with the salesman. He was a good old guy.....hadn't seen him all along. He said, "I lose lots of friends when I sell them a new tractor"....i.e. they have no need to come back...not even for a service call. Eventually I went back, but he wasn't there anymore (retired)......and I don't really care for all the new people.

Cheers To Boston,
Mike

My payment was $428.00, I always sent $450.00 so my last payment was only 200 something dollars. I'm not sure I will notice not having the payment, but I'm sure I can find something to do with extra money if it starts to stack up . ��

I jumped for joy when I paid off my Jeep and the following year my boat. Both bought used.

I must be overworking mine; In less than 2 years I have 138 hours on it and it still feels new to me.

Congrats.

I thought I was gonna have all kinds of spare cash when I paid off my truck for the first time ever. Always traded every 2-3 yrs before. Ended up buying a Travel Trailer instead. No extra cash, but many more memories to be made.

I know it fells good. I paid off my L3700 this past June and it has 332 hrs on it today. You will not have extra money you accumulate more toys. Like a backhoe!!!

I have a back hoe on it. That's actually the only time I can remember bringing it in for warranty work. The pin snapped in the arm and mangled the ears. It was completely replaced under warranty.

Regarding problems posting pictures, I found recently I now have to resize every picture posted to TBN. 33% seems to be the right size for me (mostly pics from my smartphone). Jeff
