Kubota 3700 SU

[TDug]

All,

I am looking at a 2010 Kubota 3700, with bucket and low hours 380. The tractor looks great and has been owned by one person. What is a fair selling or in my case purchase price for such a machine ?

Opinions and markets vary, but with a loader I would estimate its value at around $20k. $17k without the loader.
Low hour pre emissions tractors are getting harder to find.

I wouldn't go that high, with loader $20k is about what it cost new... Any where between $17k and $15k, I'm sure the owner would be happy.

Now if you want to test to see if he knows what the tractor (actually all the markets) has done lately, you can low ball him from there.

I would check at least one thing, the L3700 was an in-between model (from L3400 going to L3800) I think Kubota was clearing out old parts before new parts were ready.

That's a total guess but I've seen where the L3700SU did NOT have a suspension seat. Direct bolt on would jar your bones, just one thing to check to make sure it has one!!

Thank You for your direction and it does not have a suspension seat. In addition this is an "odd" tractor model per Kubota, it maybe the spare parts or or a cost point trying to fill?

From my reading ... I got the impression that the "SU" models were just very basic economy models ... Of the higher end models.

In fancy terms, "SU" stands for Special Utility (in real terms, cheaper basic models).

The "00" models were already basic "standard" (economical) models and the so called "suspension" seat was joke but better than nothing (as people found out when their's were stuck in the down position).
