Still keep thinking about upgrading to something a little larger....I like my little LS tractor, but larger bucket, more lift capacity, more HP, and higher dump clearance would make a lot of what I do much faster/easier. Looking at used (Kubota) and have a hard time justifying used over new since used prices aren't that much off for a real low hr machine. Looks like biggest difference is the Kubota insurance (if financed thru them) and state tax.
Just got a quote from out of state dealer and he said I wouldn't pay sales tax (at least not in SC - and I assume never in NC since there's no kind of title/registration). So is buying out of state - a good idea to save roughly ~$1800 sales tax?
Assuming my two local dealers (in state) are real close in quote but then adding sales tax, would there be a real good reason not to go a few hrs away for the initial purchase?
