I do agree with everything i have heard so far, especially about how kubotas hold their value. I was told that new L3940's equipped like mine are selling for 32,500 in my area and that i should be able to sell mine for 27,500. It has less than 100 hours on it, 724 FEL and BH90 bh, rear work lights and rubber pads on outriggers. I had one dealer offer 25,000 as a trade in price, others offered a little less but they also were asking for less for the new L39 so in the end things were almost identical. I did however have one dealer tell me that they could only give me 18,000 for mine on trade. I thought that was laughable, but if i am wrong in thinking that someone please put me in my place. In case anyone is wondering that place was messicks equipment in lancaster pa. I think they post on here as well which is how i learned of them. Maybe i shouldn't put that information on here but oh well to late now. Well my tough decision is still as it was yesterday. Very tough and a bit confusing because of all the variables but i do expect to talk to the yanmar dealer tomorrow so hopefully he has some good pricing for me that makes my decision a little easier. Oh and one more thing, the yanmar dealer is deffinitely not a mom and pop place. In fact they also sell New Holland and Kioti equipment and have been in buisness for many many years. Well i will keep you guys posted and keep all the feedback coming, it's deffinitely a great help. Thanks again to everyone.
