New Yanmar Cubs Question

[driver444]

I tried posting this question before, but it didn't go through.

My father's been considering the new 32HP Cub/Yanmar for his property. After reading the specs, I was less than impressed by the 3point and loader lift capacities.

The 3 point is rated for 1100, at 24" back, which is about 300lbs less than other comparable HP tractors.

Tha loader capacity it 900lbs at the pivot pins. For the record, my 20HP Mahindra is 915 at the pins. And again, comparable HP tractors are between 300 and 500Lbs more.

I was just wondering if I was missing something, or if I read the specs wrong. And If I'm right, did anybody else think the same thing?
Thanks for the input. I'd really like to take another look at these tractors.

I have narrowed my choices down to the Kubota B7800, L2800 and the new Cub Cadet 3200. I am more concerned with the Cub Cadet being so new on the maket than anything else. As the Kubota is what most folks set as the standard and are here to stay.
Our local New Holland dealer just took on the Cub line and was thinking if they changed thier minds and not carry Cubs anymore, I'm stuck.
I really like the design of the Cub as far as ergonomics and layout. Yanmar has been around for a long time and builds other tractors for different lines.

There is almost nothing new about the Cub EX3200, other than the paint job It is essentially a JD 790 or 3200, don't remember which right now.

When comparing this to other tractors, I'd compare on price not performance. Seems like the hydraulics are a little weak for the HP, but when compared to other machines in that price range, it comes out ahead (in my area, anyway).

I was just curious. I really like the look and feel of the EX. Also, I have alot of confidence in Yanmar, and even though Cub's had a good share of problems on a few subcompact models, if nothing else, dealer support and parts availability should be as good as any other brand.
