Finding a Kubota dealer is relatively easy nowadays, finding the right dealer that will give you the best deal is also fairly easy, but does require quite a lot of work and research.
The first and most important thing is to have some sense of what type of Kubota tractor you are interested in buying, and whether you are thinking of buying a new or a used tractor.
If you are thinking of buying a new Kubota tractor, then inevitably you will need to buy it from a Kubota dealer, which is not necessarily the case if you are buying a used Kubota tractor.
However, whatever dealer you buy it from the principles in terms of getting the best deal on the same.
Deciding what type of Kubota tractor or garden tractor or Kubota RTV you are thinking of buying is best determined by first of all thinking about what type of work you want it to do, and then looking at the various models such as the Kubota B, Kubota BX or Kubota L range of tractors and see which is most likely to be the right model for you.
The Kubota website for your country is likely to give you an indication of what models are available and at what cost.
Kubota Dealers
Bear in mind that the price quoted on the website is likely to be similar to what is referred to in auto sale sterms as the manufacturers recommended retail price.
The process of buying a Kubota tractor should be thought of in many ways as being similar to that of buying an auto.
A Kubota dealer will have a lot of flexibility in terms of how they can help you and in what ways.
It is in their interests to develop you as a long-term customer and that should be reflected in what they are prepared to help you with.
If they do not appear as helpful as it should be, then find another Kubota dealer.
Anyone thinking of buying a Kubota tractor or Kubota mower would do well to get a quote from Kubota for some type of credit or finance arrangement.
They would also be well advised to get alternative quotes from banks and other finance institutions. They can then compare the cost of credit on a like-for-like basis.
Kubota often offers special deals via their company website, and these should be encouraged by the local dealership.
A Kubota dealer will most likely also be able to vary the terms and conditions to your benefit depending upon your credit score rating.
Negotiating with a Kubota dealer is best done online or by phone initially, with a follow-up visit to the dealership in person if necessary. Negotiating online or via the phone puts the customer in control of the process in a way they are not if they visit the dealership.
It is possible to negotiate on the price of the tractor, as well as on other issues such as servicing and maintenance costs and transport of the tractor to and from the dealership in order to facilitate such servicing.
Other possible areas of appreciation can include additional costs such as documentation fees and cost or benefit of any extended warranty that may be available.
