    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    I would have loved a used F series if one showed up, but I'm happy with the Z422 I ended up with with for the price and near zero time investment, as saving time was the whole goal. The suspension seat is great, and it mows very quick. 3 times mowing the yard and I'm well under my 1 hour mow...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    Picked it up and brought it home yesterday. I didn't get more than 5 minutes to play with it last night, but I got the hang of driving it pretty quick, got it on and off the trailer no problem, mowed a few passes in thick grass and it did not bog down AT ALL. I think I'll be happy. I'll give it...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    Good to hear. The only reason I wanted a 48 or 54 is for one spot between a sidewalk/retaining wall and propane tank, my 48" rider just barely fits. I'll have to hit it with the push mower for now, which will give me incentive to plumb the propane tank further away. I never understood why the...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    X758 seemed like a heck of a machine to start with! If I can knock my 2 acres out in an hour or less I'll be happy. The price was 8351 + tax

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    Thanks for the help everyone. I just paid for a Z422 with a 60" deck. It has the suspension seat standard. I actually wanted a 48" or 54" deck, but this one was available now and the discount was good compared to the MSRP price listed on the Kubota price, so I went for it. It's coming from...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    I stopped by a few dealers at lunch, it is worse than I thought. Ferris is out, they do not have any CA approved models anymore. Too bad, they were working on a customers, and it was sweet. Same dealer sold Skag, Exmark and Hustler, who do have a few CA approved commercial models but none...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    It seems to get worse before it gets worse here. I bought an Stihl FS250 brush cutter a few years ago to replace a 20+ year old one. The guy at the counter tells me I got lucky when I called to order it, there was only 2 left in the state that he could put hands on before they were banned for...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    I tried to buy a Ventrac for years, they're just too spendy for what I really need it for and I've only seen a couple for sale used. I have a very steep hill with lots of oak trees on the far side of my pond that I have tried just about every type of equipment on, I had an old DR that beat me to...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    I know a guy that got a very good discount on a Bad Boy at the local TSC a few years ago. It did seem like a quality machine so I went to check them out myself. I was told they were sold on closeout and they could no longer sell them due to CA emission laws, which may still be true because the...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    Wow thank you all for the replies! Kubota Zero Turn sounds like the popular pick. I'm liking the prices of the Z400 series. I'll have to check in with the local dealer and see which ones have been blessed by my California overlords for sale here. Especially nice to know the wives are liking the...

    Need help choosing a new Kubota mower

    I have a bit of a dilemma picking a new mower for my rural property. I currently have a Husqvarna TS348, which I am not happy with, and a Kubota B2301. I want to ditch the Husky this spring and replace it with something, probably Kubota, as I have had very good luck with reliability, parts and...

    Kubota B2301 Backhoe + 3rd Function hydraulic return line

    EDIT: FYI in case anyone stumbles on this mess later, the Kubota approved way to make this work is to make the Land Pride 3rd function essentially removable with quick connects on the ends of the hoses, and attach the appropriate fittings to the hoses to power the 3rd function kit from the...
