What was original cost of a 2006 Kubota L48 TLB

The 310 is a construction machine. The 110 is mostly a 4000 series tractor and was some weird (and failed) project. I was looking at both machines back around 2000 and just wonder, in hindsight, which machine was better.

I think you answered your own question with which is the better machine. For me a swivel seat that you don’t have to get out of was a must have feature and I think the M59 is the only compact TLB that offers that. The M59 is a little tight and there’s not room to keep my chainsaw on the floor like the 310 but it is doable.

You certainly don't have to get off the 110 and I didn't think the 35 and 48 neither.

If I spent an hour per machine, I'm sure I could rig up a place to hold a saw. Not nice having it obstruct your pedals.

But they don’t have a swivel seat like a 310 that you can sit in while you swivel.

That's not so bad. At least you don't have to climb off and cimb on the back somewhere. That would sure get old fast on a small hoe with limited reach. I can't think of how many times I miscalculated and had to reposition my machine.

TractorData.com Kubota L48 backhoe-loader tractor information

I checked TractorData.com before I started this thread.
I did not see any price/cost info then, and still do not see any now.
Perhaps I am missing it.
Please explain where on that site you see any pricing info.

The M59 has a creep lever which is a real timesaver.
