I'm looking at a used 3130 (114hrs) and a new 3240.

Anyone have any knowledge of any differences between the 2?

I can buy the 3130 with the large loader for $16,300 and the new 3420 for $20,500... both have HST and 4WD

I believe the 3240 is replacing the 3130. The main difference is in the HST tranny. The 3240 has HST+ which has a feature to prevent/reduce stalling when working under load. Other than that I believe it's mostly cosmetic.

That many hours.. you basically are looking at a new tractor. So the price difference appears significant..

That being said.. more horsepower is better!
