Cool did you get a S185?

Yup, S185. Nice shape, hours actually a little lower than advertised. A71 option package so it's got a nice interior. It was nice to have a friend at the local Bobcat dealer. They sold the machine new and had the history on it. Never been in for any type of warranty repair or anything except normal service. They also seemed to think that the owner was the type who maintained his stuff properly.
My B3030 has only had 111 or 112 hours put on it since new in Feb. 2009, so this machine should last me for years & years.

It's now on the market. I hope that this doesn't violate any TBN rules. If so the staff can feel free to remove the post.

starting to drool, but NY to BC is a loooong tractor ride.

The discount would have to be way too deep to justify your fuel costs! :laughing:

A lot will depend on location. I just sold my 2007 BX24 with 60" MMM and only 205 hours for 15,000.00 It also slept indoors always. Now I just have a bagger and snowblower to sell. Tried to sell them together but the buyer of the tractor couldn't get the funds for the whole thing. Here weher we are no one discounts the tractors or attachments so we can get a slightly higher resale but say down south where you have places like Barlows that will discount a new unit I would have been laughed at. BTW the cheapest in my local area for a new BX25 was 19,000.00 So look around and price accordingly

Checked out Kubota's website. Apparently you can't get a brand new B3030 with cab, you have to move to a B3000. I don't know if it's apples to apples or not, but a B3000 optioned like my tractor stickers out at just over $29k. That's without a SSQA, of which there is one on my B3030.
