Double Orange
Member
I'm the FNG.... After owning a B3030 Cab for 1 year and 187 hrs, with no problems and great dealer support, today I pulled the trigger and traded my J. Deere diesel trail gator for the RTV 1100. Thus the my name "Double Orange". The gator wasreliable, but wasapproaching the age where I knew it was going to start nickle and dime me. I have a horse farm and needed reliablility, choirs don't stop becuase your equiptment takes a break. I'm retired but stiil work hard and expect my equiptment to work just as hard. I wanted quality and value for my $$ money. Well after comparing all the competitors the Kubota RTV 1100, was hands down the most solid built of all.. I said solid built, I'd almost have to say ...built like a tank!! Expect delivery Monday. I waslucky for two reasons today...One becuase the dealer was able to locate one... plus offered me more for mygator than I was going to advertise it for! My dealer sells J. Deere and Kubota. and expects to have problems selling the new gators when the RTV 1100 show up on his lot. Cost was $15775 w/ the bedliner. Didn't want to pay $435.00 and 2hr labor@ $70 hr. to install the radio or 2 more hrs for the air cleaner extention. My son works for food and beer, I might save a couple of buck"s depending on how thirsty he is !!You guys have posted very helpful information and..... I Thank You... for sharing. Once again thanks guys, Frank...Eastern Shore Md.
