What is the next size tractor that has all the feature of the B303HST and allows for a mid mount mower?

L2800 or L3400

Kubota Tractor Corporation | L Series Standard L2800 / L3400 / L4400

It may well be the Grand L3240 for I do not believe the L2800,3400 or 4400 do not have mid PTO's perhaps one could be added.

My L2800 only offers rear PTO.

I made the same move 11/08 from a B3030 to a Grand L3240. You can get the GL3240 with a mid pto. It is a dealer installed option. Make sure you get the LA724 loader with skid steer type q/a if going with the L3240

I also made the jump from the B3030 to the GL3540 in april 2008. Be advised the L series is substantially larger in all aspects to the B series! Your going to need a double axle trailer to haul it around!

Did you haul with a single axle before? I did my 7510 a couple times but it was touch and go. I don't even dare drive my b3200 on my trailer. I have been kicking myself every day for not buying a double axle trailer I love the size but not the tow capacity. As usual being cheap is going to cost me I had the cash to buy the double but at that time did not have a tractor.

I have always used dual axle trailers. I do see people hauling small machines on single axle trailers, bouncing down the road with no brakes at all, crazy!
