Thinking about a new L39

[Chris2520]

I agree there are deals to be had. right now.
since you are a builder. how is work going for you.
are you staying bissy?

as for the L48 , its Hydro. though there nice. I dont think
thay will ever be as strong as a gear trans. Why you think
your case and a 310 JD and all big tractors have a shuttle.
there must be a reson. my 2520 is Hydro and i like it. I dont like the
motor haveing to be reved up all the time. i like the gas peddle
on the shuttle. the L48 i sat on . did not have the panel on the side.
it was in the Dash. and i dont like the joystick on the loader.
Now the new M59 will be set up just like the L39 but bigger.
but shoot its going to $50000 , and like i said its to big for my needs.
L39 will be perfect for a home owner. with a few acers.
I got a friend in construction. and he said even with there 310
thay hardly ever need to dig over 10 feet. if thay do. thay use
an excavator. I think it will work for me...

Chris, if you want to save some money, don't trade in your Deere.
Sell it yourself....that should be easy.

You may get a better deal buying your L39 in the winter, when sales are a
bit down, and selling your JD in the spring to maximize your return.

Dfkrug you are right. that would most likely be the right thing to do.
as for waiting til winter. it is 16 degrees here today. so we got that
covered.... as far a buying L39 now and selling the JD in spring.
Dont really know if i can set on both of them at once.....
That alot of Cheese.... by tradeing or saleing the JD , i would get close to hafe my money back. a lot of difference in 20 grand , and 40 grand...

Very impressive, Mike! Nice teeth, too. Is that a custom grapple,
or stock 3rd party implement?

anything i need to do around my few little acers. quite impressive.

Chris,

I bought an L39 last summer just for home use (14 acreas). Big chunk of change for that purpose but I'm very glad I went this route. I have 150 hrs on it - mostly clearer ground, digging ditches, digging stumps, moving fill and transplanting trees. Quite versatile and pretty strong for it's size. I haven't done the rock work you see in Mike pictures but I've ran it hard 8hrs at a time on multiple occasions without any problems. Good Luck!
