Price Check L3800 price check

[grumpyoldman]

Update:
Went in to dealer today to get a price for a back blade for my b2320 and they came down another $1400 or so on the 2wd L3800 which brings tractor (before tax...) to basically $11000 and they are installing a rear work light. Been hearing nightmares on the 01 series with the emissions so I pulled the trigger. Picking up on Tuesday.

Side note, I tried the 3 point to see if it was jerky lifting slowly like people have been complaining about on here. It is. The new L3901 next to it did the same thing, and so did a Mahindra 3016 I test drove.

I guess economy tractors get economy valves.

Good deal on the L3800!

The jerky hitch thing is not a real world problem...

The jerky hitch was a big problem with the old generation. My L3200 has a slightly jerky hitch, but its very liveable g usable although annoying trying for a final finish with my box blade.

If ur tractor has a flow control for 3 pth hitch turn it to about the middle and it won't be jerky

The L3200/3800 doesn't have flow control. Messing with the rate of decent knob doesn't help with the jerkiness which is mostly on the lift. The rate of descent only affects descent speed, not lift speed.

You wont be disappointed with this tractor... If the hitch does seem to bother you in the future, send me a PM and I'll explain to you what my dealer did to mine to eliminate it. The hitch shaking wasn't a problem for me but I decided to get it fixed while the loader was being installed.
