  • Howdy ya`ll! Thanks for stopping by our channel today. We really appreciate it! Today on the farm we will discuss our 2012 Kubota L3200 DT (Gear Drive Tranny) 4WD compact utility tractor. We've owned this tractor for a couple years, so we've had plenty of seat-time to know if this is a good machine or not. Come along with us today on the farm as we discuss this tractor, and our thoughts on it. God bless and thanks for watching!

    Neighbor has one, I worked for him about three years and drove it a lot. It did not have a loader and it was used mainly for mowing. He had a L3200 loader/backhoe tractor also and a 90 horse cab Kubota. I have 2 John Deere tractors with no loader unfortunately but I really like the Kubota L series tractors.

      Thanks for watching! I’m not brand-loyal when it comes to tractors but this Kubota has been a great machine.

    Good afternoon! I have the exact same tractor except I went with the R4 tires that were on it. I have had it since 2013 and can say that it is a workhorse. No issues at all through pushing trees over, pulling trees, loader work, bush hogging, aeration or anything else that I can use it for. Tractor is not abused but worked like it was meant to be. I also do my mechanical and service work on it. The only thing it can't do is keep the yellow jackets off of me in August - September here in North Georgia while bush hogging! Peace to you and your family. Thumbs up all the time when I see your videos.

      Thank you so much for the very kind comments! Yellow Jackets here are bad in late summer too...we have alot of the same terrain and such as you do in NGA (by the way that is a beautiful area!). You are right, the L3200 is an absolute workhorse for a compact utility tractor. Just today my nephew drove and used my L3200 for a bit and when he got off he said "wow, that little machine is a beast for 32hp!". He owns a grading/hauling company and has skid steers, and other heavier equipment for his business, plus he owns a Kubota MX6060 (I think thats the model), so he knows machinery. Ive been pushing and back-dragging about 12 tons of dirt with it all morning (vid upcoming soon!) Thanks for visiting and commenting...youre a huge part of our YT family here! God bless you and your family!

    Thanks for the detailed review. I never thought there was the much difference in Hydro and year drive. Ours is a hydro with live pto, but now I wish I had a gear drive with a live pto. It does struggle with a hard pull (pulling small trees).
    Have a good day bud.

      Thanks Sir! Both transmissions have pros and cons, depends on primary uses on the farm I suppose. Hope you and the Mrs are both doing well!
