3720 / 300cx quote

[lincolnvt]

Hey guys:
Great site - have learned a lot. Looking at 3720 love the 44hp in mid chassis. Great sounding intercooled turbo - better power / wt match than 4310 i was looking at. But, it comes with a price. What do you guys think of this quote. Appreciate your time.

I'd say it's a pretty decent price. I seen a 3720 yesterday with a "yard price" of $20,397. It was an eHydro, no mid PTO, and R1's on it. Yard price being a tag attached to the steering wheel with no inside dickering.
I see a engine heater, I don't see the transmission oil heater. I would suggest getting one. They're about $70 or so and make a difference in performance when it's cold, even when using LoVis.

 

[lincolnvt]

thanks for the input. So you would get both heaters. Does get cold up here in Vermont. cheers

 

[dmp437]

I ran the first year with no transmission heater, 2nd winter with. The hydraulic performance comes up quicker with the heater.

why five foot bucket and not six?

I have a backcountry ski trail - 2miles which I will be working on with my neighbors and a lot of the trail is not much more than 5ft. Also, most of property is currently wooded - thought it would be easier to get around. Think I should go larger?

 

[rdln]

Tough call, for best stability using loader tires should be set out wide which might take you (dont know how many positions are available for your rear tires) to 6 feet anyway.

You definetly have the hydraulic power to lift a 6 footer full of anything, might as well use it.

 

[lincolnvt]

thanks, need to give it some more thought

I'm going to the skid steer carrier and skid steer buckets. 66" is a nice width. 61 just barely covers the wheels.

Skid steer buckets are heavier duty and black for easy painting when welding the hooks.

I have a quote that I passed on that goes like this:

3720 Tractor
Mid PTO
3rd hydraulics SVC
Electric diverter (4, and 5 hyd)
Air seat suspension
Cruise upgrade
Larger R4 tires
$21885


300CX loader
Std hood guard
73" HD bucket
3rd funct hydraulic lines
48" pallet forks
Tooth bar for 73" bucket
$4465

Total $26,350

I got a heck of a deal and went with a different quote at $26,100 with block heater, and deluxe hood guard, but am planning modify the pkg like mentioned above to the SS attachment...

 

[lincolnvt]

thanks looks like you got a very good deal on your set up. Appreciate your reply

Looking up old posts that you were debating on the 60" bucket. I find it much easier to get around in the woods with the narrower bucket, and don't 'pine' for the wider one. Just another opinion.

I assume you are not talking about using it for just moving snow. Heavier loads will be more stable in a small bucket too, keeping the weight nearer the center.

Wheel widths with R-4's are not very flexible. I believe about 1.5" difference between narrowest and widest.

I ended up switching to the skid steer carrier, and 66" skid steer "foundry" bucket ILO the tinfoil tractor bucket. I welded my chain hooks directly to the bucket, something that I would not do to the tractor bucket as the steel is so thin.
