XT3 GSX with 54" fabricated deck

Okay, my local Kubota dealer has a Cub Cadet XT3 GSX with 51 hours on the clock for sale. They are asking $3200 for it. I'm not sure what year it was built so I need to check that out.

I picked this Kubota G1800S tractor a few years ago for $150, not running and a few other issues. I put it on CL at the end of the summer looking to get $1500 for it and only had a little interest.

These are pretty cool little tractors with an awesome D662 engine but why Kubota built it without power steering is beyond me.

I think these GSX's retail for around $5k and the deck is another $1k....I know 99% of the members here think these are a pos. :beatdeadhorse:

I was thinking $1500 difference but the dealer is wanting $2k + tax. What do you all think?

I think you should remove that D662 from the Kubota tractor and use it to repower a Cub. Maybe a nice 982.... another 982, not the one you already have. :biggrin2:

Sell what's left of the Kubota as a roller parts machine. And forget about the XT.

*****OR******

Keep the Kubota all together instead of taking it apart and use it. It's a better tractor. Won't cost you anything to keep it.

****OR****

If you feel an urge to spend a handful of cash, you can send me the Kubota and $500 in cash and I'll send you a 104. You will have spent less, and gotten a tractor that is made better and will last longer than the XT..... and I will be happy, happy, happy! :biggrin2:

Should be a sticker under the seat or seat mount that will tell you the date of mfg.

Oak I know you are someone who likes the 3000 series as I do. I have read reviews from GSX owners who love the tractor and think they are very comparable to the 3000 series. I would ask the dealer to split the difference in prices with you and I think that would be a good deal on a low hour tractor.
