LS or Kubota

[Xc97700]

I’ve finally made my decision.

I was going to go with the Kubota due to it costing a little bit more but decided not to for these reasons:

1. Loader hydraulic lines on the outside of the machine
2. The dealer tried putting me in the LE ( less features edition)
3. Weight to HP ratio
4. Dealer still has not received any loaders

With that being said I did not go with the LS MT340 because for a few bucks more I could jump into a larger frame with more HP.

I decided on the MT352 HC with the top and tilt/3rd function/box blade/radio and pallet forks/3 rear remotes

A similar sized Kubota would have been 15-20k more than what I paid

I also chose the LS based on the customer service. The dealer support appears to be hands down better than the Kubota dealer. Free delivery and Pick/drop off with any warranty work

For a cost reference, I spent less on the MT352 than I would have with the Kubota L3560

Thx for all the insight

The service, that right there is the big issue, congrats I like the LS line up and as you have discovered you get a lot of tractor for your money with LS and the MT3 is a nice platform.
