Hi from Australia Just a couple of photos of my new L5740 with Ausi made front end loader and home made branch grab Replaces L5030 which was a piece of rubbish from the word go . Same engine minus the turbo but the 5740 has twice the capabilities . Any similar problems

Parriss59, welcome to TBN....we want to hear what you are doing and how things are going in Aussie land.

Also, am curious about the problems you had with your L5030 ... mine continues to be problem free with over 600 hrs on it. I used it all day yesterday and this morning playing in the dirt. :D

My Kubota dealer called me today and was wondering if i was still interested in the tractor...i see the neurosurgeon on the 18th...if all goes well i will probably place the order on the 19th....the way the economy is going kubota might pay me to take the tractor off their lot...wouldn't that be nice.:D

L5030 was gutless in comparison , no torque ,trani was not as smooth , thirsty on fuel, aircon not efficient kept blowing fuses .As I said a piece of crap from the word go and it cost me $12,000 change over to find out.

My L5030 was ,in relative terms, half the tractor of the 5740 . In Power/torque terms no comparison . I think my 5030 was a friday machine /lemon/ not up the specs offered by kubota . Im glad to hear you are happy with yours. Im glad I traded mine in .

good news bad news....the doctor said under restrictions "the patient...that's me...is on complete temporary disability"....next visit 6 weeks....the good news is my dealer has me qualified for the 0% down 0% interest for the 54 months on what i want with the L5740 HSTC. i am not missing any physical therapy appointments and doing my home exercises 3 times a day...time is running out for me on the great kubota deal.:eek:
