P.S....Thomas... remind me to never ever take you to the dog pound...

I remember going to the pound with the family (Mom, Dad, two boys & two girls). My sisters wanted a kitten. We came home with Three!/w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

In order to stay on topic: The L3130 headlights remind me of the Boomers/w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

L3130 is a sweet unit,but I'm leaning towards the B7800. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Pet stores & shelters..thats one of my many soft spots.

I also notice that..headlights..Kubota copy from another /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif sure wish Kubota would offer swivel seat before another tractor company does. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Thomas,

Thanks for sharing the pictures. I really like the looks of that L3130.

Seems like you're making a good jump in hp and size with either the L3130 or the B7800. Have you got some specific (bigger) projects lined up, or do you just like the thought of more power to do things faster and easier? Just curious.

B7800 just about the size I need..little more hp & heavier tractor,plus it has power steering. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Why doesn't kubota offer swivel seats? Does JD? It sure is nice. I just happened to notice some nice backhoes in the background (35 and 21's). Also an excavator! Cool.

Not sure if Kubota offers swivel seat yet in the M series,but they don't in the B's nor the L's 02 /w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif maybe in 03. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

JD..maybe the JD owners can answer that question better than I. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

The dealership has about every toy..opps..tractor you can think of,and in good weather plus knowing the person,he will let you play..opps..try model out for a while.

Think B2910. /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif All the extra comfort features and they are on dealers floor now. /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif Plus over $2,200.00 more. /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

Thomas, I stopped by a Kubota dealer for a few minutes Saturday and looked at two L3130s there; one had FEL on it and the other did not. They also had an L4330 cab model; really nice!

Are you in the market for another tractor, Bird?

The B7800 really caught my /w3tcompact/icons/eyes.gif /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif and it might just be the compact tractor to come..like the BX2200.

I plan on staying in the B-series and yes the B2910 would also fit my needs,the L-series sweet unit no doubt..but for me it would be a waste of a good tractor for putting around on small projects.

My mad plan.
Purchase B7800 w/backhoe,frontend loader..JD B..Retire..Move to W.VA...so far my better have likes 2 out of 3..ahh B7800 w/the goodies wasn't the top of her list. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif
