Tractor
Kubota MX6000
I was on a waiting list for a Kubota MX HST tractor with about 5 different dealers; all told me not to expect anything for a least 9 months. Yesterday I was called by a dealer in an adjacent state; they have a MX6000 that someone ordered and declined to buy. I’m the lucky one who will take delivery in a few weeks.

Good for you. & good luck with the purchase. Pics when it gets delivered or it didn't happen.

Man, how nice to hear good news. Congratulations - I'll bet you were smiling yesterday. In these times, that is like a 1 in a million phone call. On a side note, I ordered a back entrance door for our house. Ordered it July 17. ETA 9/17. Now ETA12/10. Still waiting. For that phone call. Ha.

I hear you. 9 months waiting on an ABS controller for my truck with no delivery date in sight ... "GM National backorder"

1 year waiting for a refrigerator due to size limits. Have not even restarted making this model yet as more profitable ones are still back ordered. Maybe next year....
Or I will have to redo a whole kitchen wall to accommodate a wider unit ($$$$)

Appliances are more like a wish list rather than a order list. The days of the $600 single door are almost gone and have given way to the $3000 double door ( with may things you don't need or want). And they are BIG. Hope you get what you need soon.

Last year when truck shopping I wondered if it would be better to wait until the supply chain opened up again.
I sure am glad that I didn't.

I'm looking forward to pictures when the OP's tractor come in... provided that he isn't too busy working it. 👍
