Implements : LA514, BH90, Gill SR20 box scraper, Wallenstein BX42 chipper, Bush Hog SQ72 mower
Purchased From : Central Carolina Power Equip
Strengths Easy to operate, durable (340 hours and no problems), HST very smooth, seems to be very fuel efficient. LA514 and BH90 both work well. Excellent all-around machine for horse farm. Have cleared 3 acres with it, just keeps chugging along without complaint.
Weaknesses Cold starting is sometimes hard. If I lived in a colder climate I would definitely want the engine block heater option.
Overall Excellent machine. Big enough for anything I need to do on a 14 acre horse farm.

Years of Use : 1-year
Implements : LA514 FEL, Bush Hog 6' scrape blade
Purchased From : Kubota of Asheville
Strengths I've owned my L3240 for 1 year. Have 38 hours on it. Use around house, maintain gravel drive and general use. Love it. Finally got my wife on it and now she wants to drive it all the time while I do the heavy ground work! Sips fuel, quiet, easy handling, comfortable seat and excellent hydraulics. I looked at the green & yellow models, but I would have had to buy a bigger model to compare with the features of the L3240 big orange. You just can't go wrong with a Kubota, and great dealer service.
Weaknesses Still looking for them!
Overall This is one excellent tractor with great features for the money. Buy it, you'll be glad you did!

Review By : motorhead on 5/9/2009
Price Paid : $0.00
Years of Use : 2-Years
Implements : bucket, forks, backhoe
Purchased From : local dealer
Strengths What an amazing tractor. I've spent many hours on all sizes and shapes of equipment- this tractor is exceptional. It's used in the woods for logging, plowing snow, building roads, and digging. Hydraulic output is exceptional. Turning radius is very tight- good on lawns or use ring chains and lock in the rear- it'll go anywhere.
Weaknesses Weakness? What weakness?
Overall VERY impressed.

Implements : LA 724 FEL ; L2296 Bucket W / QA ; TL 1748 Cutting Edge ; 5 ft. Rotary Cutter ; 6 ft. BB
Purchased From : Texas
Strengths HST Plus is great. The days of the tractor stall are history. A total pleasure to operate because of its ease of use, smoothness, comfort and relative quietness. Handles and steers great. Very strong and a good size.
Weaknesses None that I have noticed so far. However, it is still in tractor age practically new.
Overall This is an excellent tractor that I think anyone will like experienced or not. So far I couldn't be happier with it for my 12 acres. It's like the Lexus of compact tractors.

Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : FEL -LA514, 160" Rear Finish Mower, 160" Bush Hog
Purchased From : Mississippi
Strengths A true work horse, It has yet to let me down on any task at hand. The GST trans is easy to operate and the 4x4 is great, the FEL never fails to amaze me on it's uses around the property. Sips fuel, was wondering if the fuel guage worked until it started to move after the 5th hour of use. I'm glad I got the Kubota, it was the right choice. I spent 10 straight hours the morning it was delivered and 6 hrs the next day.
Weaknesses Have yet to find one.
Overall I will never buy anything but a Kubota. The price listed is less implements.

Years of Use : New Owner (0-1 Year)
Implements : Forks, 726 loader, 6ft disc, brush hog, and blade
Purchased From : Indiana
Strengths The hst great you can put any one on to drive. The loader is awsome only tractor that could operate loader in both function at same time. auto idle is new feature that I like alot saves full and less ware on engine. The quick detach skid steer bucket is the only way to go I also bout a set of forks us them more then the bucket money well spent.
Weaknesses some times need more power for the size of tractor but I new that when I bought it I always try and exced its capiblitys.
Overall Great tractor severla thousand less then red green or Blue with a better warenty and 0% interest for 3 years I feel that I made the right choice. but I only have about 10 hours on it but so far very happy.
