many have spoke highly concerning the kubota in the mid 30's hp range and i agree with them. now, here's my take on some other things. my first was a new 04 L3130, 4 wheel drive, hst. my son currently has it and has been problem free except for the operator presence relay which i replaced myself. i currently have an 08 L3240, 4 wheel drive, hst with loader and it too is a great tractor. one dislike i have is the leveling device on the lift arm. made strong but engineered cheaply in that it is very difficult to adjust. now for the good. many opinions have been stated concerning old iron versus new iron. new iron offers for me, an aging adult with the various ailments and complications, the chance to continue using my tractor, never fails to start, the open station allows easy on/off, hst offers smooth operation while being easy on the legs and back, comfortable seating with tilt steering wheel allows me to stay on for an extended time. it is also equipped with many safety devices that helps to prevent this aging man getting into trouble. noise level and vibration is minimal. factory loader was and is a must and the controls are readily accessible. the loader offers so much flexibility and enables me to continue to accomplish a lot of work around the place, besides, it just plain fun to use. mine is equipped with r4 tires, good traction with minimal damage to lawn when mowing. i do not have loaded rear tires so some times i lose traction to the rear tires, thats why 4 wheel drive is great. a word of caution, descend a hill in 4 wheel drive only, or you may find yourself in for quite a ride due to that loss of traction. i am sure that other brands of tractors offers comparable options, convenience and durability.
