LS Tractor

[RL338]

Today I decided on a new tractor , a LS MT357 with the PowerClutch. I was looking for something bigger than my 2 JDs and with a cab. Plan is to pick it up Saturday morning weather depended. The tires will be switch out to the newer R14 instead of the R4 that are on there.
Kinda looking forward to next winter and not freezing my rear off plowing snow

I really want to get rid of my Kabota. I've more lost time with that damn thing than I did with Evinrude outboards.

I for one can tell you how much I appreciated having a heated cab for plowing snow in the winter!

I loved my Kabota! But it was a larger tractor as a 75 hp model. Only had a few minor repair issues while I had it for 8 years, which were not surprising in nature.

Take a look at LS. They are the parent company of New Holland.

Ours is the first generation with the regeneration system. Kubota was forced to do a recall on the system after the warranty period. Most dealers won’t tell you it’s out there. As the original system started to fail we had to call Mechanics to get us up and running. They took us through the steps, yep thats what we did. On board computers confirmed we did what we were supposed to do. Spent a couple of grande before we learned the dealer should have replaced the system at no charge. I’ve also lost two weeks each of the last two summers waiting on parts, but that’s more an issue with our local dealer.
Last summer I had to rent a tractor while mine sat. It sure wasn’t a Kubota. while mine was still down I headed to Montana for a two day fishing trip with a buddy. Stopped at a Kubota shop in the twin falls Idaho area. When I came back through a couple of days later he had the part for me. The real issue is not likely Kubota et all, it’s the model (3350) in conjunction with our local dealer. As I vent through my first cup of coffee my issue really is more with our local shop and the model year.
Big Green next time!

I just have a small JD compact tractor but I wish that I’d gotten a cab when I bought it! That LS looks great.

That LS looks good and right color as my son in law would say, he's a New Holland man who doesn't like John Deere for some reason. I wear a John Deere cap just to pick at him

I’ve got a LS MT352 and it’s a great tractor. The 52 hp is more than enough for my needs and hasn’t let me down. The 72” grapple makes clean ups and moving brush and logs easy work. The flail mower keeps food plots mowed and trails in the woods are manicured.
