Leather seats, touch screens.

That's a nice work one, diesel I presume I'm not familiar with Kubotas drive system does it use a belt with clutches or a hydrostatic pump/ drive motor? The weight of it would be to much for my usage especially with 25-26" tires. I believe it's over 2k lbs. For me weight is great when I'm using a tractor, sxs not so much. I'd hate to get stuck or tear up a clients field especially if it's wet.

HST just like the tractors. Diesel.

Back in 2013 I bought a 2013 Polaris Ranger Crew 800 full size for less than 10K. I use it to plow snow and work around one of my farms. I don’t need a 35k machine to work in and out of, mine will last me another 10 years with proper maintenance.

Just found the Canadian pricing. Yep, I paid less last Sept for my new F150. LOL

Crazy!

Said to my wife, I'd be better off to just buy you a new SUV, then take our VW Tiguan High Line and put some aggressive tires on it, and use it for a UTV.
Then I'd have my climate controlled leather seats and high end stereo system, LOL

I'm kinda thinking that the BIG farmers dealing with $250-$500k equipment purchases, that asking the dealer. "How about throwing in a 30-40k gator for half price" would be reasonable for both.
Last year I bought a used gator (835R) with a cloth interior, full cab with glass windows and the door glass cranks up and down (not electric, what a heap) and of course full hvac. It also came with tracks for snow fun. The guy owns a marina and had ordered a new one, but with 4 doors.
I swore to myself that I wasn't going to be one of those guys with a $30k+ toy... but it was the one on Craig's list that my wife liked and he was willing to take my Harley as part of the deal and it was only about 10 miles away.
A year later, I have it up on the lift doing so service. That revealed the we put 330 miles and 82 hours on it in a year, and it hasn't left the property.
I'm very happy with my wife's decision. I'da been riding around in the snow with a bunch of gear on, helmet and goggles, etc.. instead of with her (and the dogs) with the wipers and defroster running wearing a light coat.

Rusty: It sure as hell doesn't hurt to ask--I ascribe to the saying: If u don't go---u'll never know.

Didn’t read every response, but I will add this.
Bought a used M-135x years ago and it’s loaded. I was happy it had all the bells and whistles (front suspension, extra remotes, loader suspension)
All that stuff has broken before the tractor reached 3000 hours.
Loader suspension accumulators needed replaced (~$800)
Extra remotes broken cable and dripping remotes fixed (~$500)
Tractor suspension, leaking hydraulic lines, broken fitting (~$200)

I expected this and I’m not upset. Just reminding you that options are nice, but they WILL eventually break. Worst part is, once you EXPECT to have them, you will be unhappy without them when they break.

I'm not going to knock creature comforts my Polaris General ride command has a nice touch screen gps/radio that hooks via bluetooth to my phone that also sports a backup camera as well as a front camera.....do I need it....not really but I sure enjoy having it. This is no different than the fuel injection debate was and how many new utility vehicles are carbed?
