Pulled the trigger! M7060

[jkornbread]

Well wife and I pulled the trigger on upgrading to a new M7060. We had a nice B3200 but it just wasn't big enough, and I was very tired of mowing in summertime heat with an open cab. So, a few phone calls and a bit of haggling on my end I feel very pleased with the deal we got. Sold my B3200 for a very decent price and with Kubota's 0% financing I couldn't go wrong.

I optioned up a bit
12 speed trans
Front end loader with the big 84" bucket, with ride control and auto level
2 remotes out back
Cast wheels with weights

So far I've owned it for about 24 hrs, spent most of yesterday getting it home, so didn't get to play with it till today. HOLY F**K what a difference! WOW! So comfortable and the controls are amazing. The 3200 was a great machine but **** this is light years ahead! I can't wait till mowing season lol. I should get to drag the disc a bit in a couple days but its not even going to notice a little 5' disc.........

I put an alpine stereo in it today, very pleased to see that even though I didn't cough up the cash for the factory installed stereo the cab already had speakers installed and was completely pre wired for stereo, including antenna. Simple install, though anyone in the market may want to order the proper wiring harness, I cut the connector off and wired it in myself. Didn't want to drive 45 miles to get harness (if it was in stock)

Tractor ****!

You did real good with the options!

I got everything you did except ride control and a cab on my M9540.

Having operated several tractors with factory radio I think going aftermarket there was actually a better idea.

Good luck and happy tractoring.

Congratulations!!
I think you'll like the 12 speed trans. I wish my M7040 had that feature & ride control. So far my '11 M7040 has 1255(trouble free) hrs put on it mostly moving rd bales & cutting hay. The engine uses right around 2 GPH of fuel pulling a 9' disc mower.

Congratulation on your new tractor, the new 60 Series is a real improvement over the 40 Series especially in that size with the 12/12 option.

You are going to love the cab in winter and summer.:thumbsup:

Another buyer shooting a new machine ?

That's quite an upgrade from a little B, like going from high school ball straight to the NFL

12x12 with integrated park is nice, pollution garbage is not.

No argument there, I traded my perfectly good L5030HSTC with only 1400 hours in on a new L5740HSTC to avoid that mess. We bought our M8540HDC about four years ago, so we'll probably never have to buy a full Tier IV machine.
