- 2003 Kubota B7800 (new to me @ 435 hours
Sounds like a real good deal, especially if it has a MMM.
I paid $13000 for a B7800 4 years ago, no cab, with 435 hours. It included the MMM, PHD, tooth bar, LR72 and RB 72.

The first thing you'll need to do is get yourself the updated seat. Yours has the old style & those are literally a PITA! Looks like a good deal otherwise!

Right on the money ! The problem with them is you are always sliding downhill / forward.
This was my solution..... from Tractor Supply.

Well, I hope it all works out for you soon. Hate to say it, but if it were me , I'd already be threatening to dispute the credit card charge, stop payment on the check, etc. Perhaps that might get the wheels turning.

Well the dealer called me back yesterday finally an told me it wouldnt ship until wednesday now... ugh... I am sarting to think he is stalling in the hopes I will decide not to buy it. I may have time Monday to go pick it up an save some of the $800 paid for shipping, Really disappointed in the salesman.

Sounds like the dealership is giving you the big J O.
If you have time, go pick it up. I did mapquest and it says that you are 725 miles from Ga. Last month I went by myself to pick up my 3240 and it was 712 miles. I left Friday at 2 am and got back Saturday around 9 am. I only stopped to take a few ZZZ at rest areas and welcome centers. I think it cost me around $400 in fuel and $50 in eats. Good luck!!
That is frustrating and bad for dealer reputation. When I bought my first tractor they fussed with it for four weeks claiming the FEL install didn't fit into previously scheduled work. Only later did I find out that the particular dealer I bought from has a terrible reputation and I sure understood why. The frustrating part was that they are only 12 miles from my house. I don't even buy oil from them anymore.
If you can, go ahead and pick it up. I went to pick up my second tractor. About 500mi round trip and had no issues, just a nice leisurely road trip.

Well the deed is done, went out thursday morning an got back friday night. Ran it some saturday and a few more hours today. Man that seat has got to go, what were they thinking! All in all, tractor is in good shape, you can tell it has been sitting for awhile but then 151 hours on a 2005 ya I figured that. FEL is great, 4wd is perfect, ac is nice an cool, an it even has the radio which I didnt know till I picked it up! Downers are the HST is a bit loud not sure if there is a cure for this but I got used to it pretty quick, again, the seat is something strait out of a torture chamber and will be gone in a week or 2 at most. Now I just need some implements (box blade & brush hog first) an Ill be busy for awhile...:thumbsup:
