I have no experience in LS tractors, I am wanting a 50 hp range utility tractor and saw their ad. A K5055 2wd with loader for around $19,000 new. Not even saw one but off brand worries me for parts and resale if need be. I have seen a lot of used tractor that are really rough for about the same money. I just wondered if these were any good.
LS tractors???

At one time Kubota was an off brand tractor

I really think one is better off to stick with the 3 in long run deere, Kubota, cnh. I would rather have older in these, but that just me. Those scissors do work too.

An old JD 3020 with power shift, a bucket and bale spear would give a lot more tractor for a lot less money.
Bought ours a 1968 diesel in April 1969, 47 years ago and still running strong. One of the best buys we ever made.

I bought a LS XR4046H almost two years ago and don't know how I got along without it. Not had any problems. Has a five year warranty.
Moves a lot of hay quickly. My father in law and brother in law are strictly green. But they are impressed with how much tractor I got for the money.
fil is talking about getting one. I love the hydrostat sure is a lot easier.

I looked around for a year or more for a good used tractor. Saw a lot of tractors I wouldn't touch with a 10' pole. Saw some good ones that sold for a pretty price.
In the end I bit the bullet and bought a new mfwd 105 hp Kubota and have no regrets. Since I bought my tractor, another half dozen like mine have showed up around the neighborhood. Also a couple JDs and a couple NHs.
Bought the loader outright for cash. Did the 0% thing for 5 yrs through Kubota for the tractor. Just over halfway through now. It will be a happy day when the tractor is paid off :banana:

Sorry it took me a while littletom, I have around 250 hours on it. I used it in the woods a bunch last winter dragging out tree tops for firewood. Hydro is really nice in tight quarters.
I have a dealer I have all the confidence in the world in. I haven't had any issues other than the draw bar was missing and I didn't notice for 6 months and he just handed me a new one and said "don't sell this one on ebay and expect to get another one".
He was joking, for the solemn ones on here.....
