Kubota RTV X1100C
« on: January 27, 2022, 08:53:48 AM »
After owning my 2003 Polaris Ranger 6x6 for the past 9 years & dealing with failing obsolete electrical components, I decided to treat myself with something a little newer & nicer. I just ordered a 2022 Kubota RTV X1100C. The dealer said to expect a lead time of 5-6 months, which i'm ok with. The used market on these is ridiculous. 4 year old units are literally going for more than what i'm paying. I ordered it with the Boss 6'6" V plow & all the other extra bells & whistles. I will use it to plow my driveway & visit my neighbors. A really expensive toy, but i'm excited.

Our grounds crew  at the ARNG Professional Education Center had a bunch of those. They are definitely work horses, and seemed to be low maintenance.

Wow. That’s a long lead time. How’s the baby Dmax doing?  Been reading on them and the 100,00 mile oil pump belt replacement had me scratching my head.

Wow! That's too long of a lead time. Productivity for the summer just went out the window, along with the fall too!

The baby Dmax is about to turn 100K. Aside from the wiring issues I had early on, it has been relatively trouble-free for the last 70+k. It has the 2.8L, I believe the oil pump belt is on the 3.0 V6

My initial hope was to have it for plowing season, it's getting close...

these folks have several different dealerships surrounding harrisburg, pa. and are one of the largest kubota/ag dealers in the northeast.

i am not sure if they have any on their lot at the moment, but at this point it wouldnt hurt to give them a call and see.

they do have this used model for $15k:  https://www.messicks.com/used/off-road-utility-vehicles/164201

this is the number to their flagship store (717) 367-1319

After almost 13 months, I finally received a call. The dealership is receiving 2 this week & one of them is mine. They are 2+ weeks out on accessory installs/prep, so I'll hopefully see it by the end of the month.

Just ordered a RTV 520, quite a bit smaller but should work out fine for my needs.

I recognize that...Two of them nearby. One is on a farm and I see it often doing daily chores, and one belongs to a family a few houses away. They use it to plow driveways. It will definitely move some snow.

I think Shawn needs one with all the snow he gets, maybe Sam too!

I won't lie, i could trade my quad for that quite easily.

Now my big issue, the backhoe and loader my neighbor had is sold...
I didn't know it was for sale, so I'm now without...
Both quite limited in quantity currently and the owners/dealers are quite proud of them...
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb.  I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.

Well, a year has gone by & although we didn't get a ton of snow, this is still the right machine for me. I ended up adding a 2" lift, different tires/wheels & a remote start.
