An owner-operator reviewing his own tractor after a year of personal use, with no apparent dealer or brand affiliation.
Yes, he says he likes it a lot and would buy it again, even though the tractor has needed four dealership visits for coolant and hydraulic leaks.
The loader, bucket, and backhoe all come off super easily, with the backhoe taking not even two or three minutes to remove.
The loader has a flutter when going up and down, requiring several shop visits to readjust and retorque the mounts.
He liked the Boomer 40 and its bigger cab, priced about $30,000 less, but chose the 3039R for its heated and cooled cab; LS, Mahindra, and Kubota were also considered.
