i just got off the phone with bota and they can lease me an 1100 for 250.00 a month for 60 months and i can buy it at the end of the lease for 3500 is this a good deal ? atleast i will have a pattern maker to make all my parts from
 
Thats 18.5 k If you can write it off as a business expense thats one thing but seems like a bunch. If they do all the service and you "use it up" in 5 years thats also a consideration.
 
well my brother has the llc company so he can right it off . now as for me it's up to me to make all the parts and patterns i can off of it . if it does go through and i can get it i'l gonna make enough stuff to hit ebay with it . i'm gonna make anything and everything you could imagine this thing could have. it's just a pipe dream right now but if it does go through things will be looking up for the available parts for the rtvs.
 
Would it have the hyd lift peanut?, I paid 12700 for my 2011 RTV900 S package, hyd bed and plastic top . In addition, I had to pay for the kubota corp insurance since I financed it and 7% tax since it doesn't have a pto. I will be out of town till Monday with no internet- Good Luck with whatever you decide. :) bordercollie
 
Since a new 1100 will cost at least 18500 that is not a bad deal. Kubota will finance it for 60 months with 0 down and 0% interest also, that is another option. As far as using it for a pattern you might be better off with a 900xt as it would be a bunch cheaper, the machine is the same except for the cab, and there would be more things to make for the 900 than the 1100. They have the same financing deal so the monthly payment should be a bit lower with the 900 compared to the lease and there would not be a balloon payment due at the end.
 
it has the hrdraulic dump i also noticeds they moved that plastic tank from the rear . i want to go with the 1100 becauae of the cab i can make alot of things for that cab. not to mention it would keep the seats nice and clean too if it gets wet.me and my brother went look at it yesterday all they had was the camo one i would much rather have the standard orange but hey you can't be picky right. my main reason to get it is to make parts for it and the first thing would be to yank that god awefull front bumper off and redo it . also make a rear bumper for it too. my brother is a hydraulic mechanic and said he could help out of rigging up some neat attachments for them hookups in the rear. if i do get it i might have to go up on my prices by 50 cents.lmaowish me luck i have been trying to get one for years now. i'm to the point of selling my rhino to help pay for it . i gotta do something i rather make parts for the rtv because i kinda find it fun,
 
Peanut....

Why not go with the 900xt as suggested..As a fabricator you shouldn't have much trouble fashioning a cab to fit...I would think a reasonably priced cab would sell well in colder regions....Just a thought.

Peanut,

Living here in the subtropics just a little north of you, I haven't regretted having the RTV 1100 with cab for one second. As a matter of fact, when I see some of my buddies driving around in the dust and heat and mosquitos in open cab units, it reminds me how very happy I am to have the A/C and the enclosed cab. I say if you can afford it, and you think you want it, go with the 1100 and don't look back. I do think you might should consider the no interest purchase option, as you'll pay approximately the same amount monthly, but will own the unit without having to pay the extra $3500.00 at the end of the finance period. I used the 60 months 0% interest option. With either the lease or purchase option, Kubota will mandate their insurance for the term of the finance period. That was approximately $950.00 amortized over the life of the loan, and will be added to your monthly payment. If you can write it off, it doesn't really matter. Get the 1100.
 
Peanut if you really want the 1100 GO FOR IT. There are alot of things custom that the 1100 could use. Like inside storage, lights, gun racks, tool boxes. The outside needs good bumpers, skid plates, stick stopers, bed railes,tool storage, etc. Plus you will have alot of fun with it. The heat and AC is sure nice too. My 2 cents worth.
 
i thought about the 900 but after going and giving the 1100 a good look i just got all kindsa ideas as to what can be done to it. i could make a cab for the 900 but why spend time and money on making a cab when the 1100 has on plus the ac/heat is a must for me lets face it it's freakin hot down here in the summer. when i was looking at the 1100 i seen a awesome new bumber for the front and i was looking at the rear and there is a way to make a bumper .me and my brother was looking really hardat it and ideas just kept coming to me about stuff i could make for it.with my luck the deal will probably not go through my luck just hasn't been that good and i always get my hopes up only to be let dwn at the last minute. if i have too i will try to sell my rhino. i also have a huge job where a lift boat company wants me to change the entire bottom on one of their boats that will be about a 2 month job and hopefully i could put all the money into the rtv. i need it and you guys need it too there is to much stuff that i can make for it to benefite you guys. i have to call my brother today to see if he talked to the guys about it.
 
Peanut:

I know you and I have wanted one of those RTV's for a long time... and I'd be darn happy if you were able to swing a deal on a 1100.

But, be wary wary cafeful about how that lease agreement is written. Are you limited by the number of hours you put on it? Who pays for any maintenance or fluid changes to keep up with any warranty? What about any repairs? But maybe the most important question of all... Are you permitted to make any changes/additions to the RTV without getting into trouble with the lease agreement?

Peanut, I'm just another set of eyes looking at your possible deal. Lots luck.

yea they sure would like the ac right now i'm just waiting for my brother to get off his lazy butt and do some calling. he has the llc company so the lease would be under his name. i would try to sell my rhino and buy one but i figured that i could just lease it . that way if things go south i can just tell them to come pick it up and not have to worry about the note. i'm not worried about damaging it because i keep all my stuff in tip top shape . there was one thing in the lease thing where it said you can lower payments when needed and just resume regular payments when you can so it's alot of stuff me and my brother will have to sit down and talk with the people about .if i can only get my brother to sit down with them we went look at the 1100 it was loaded with power bed tilt and hydraulic connections in the rear. i did notice that where the old plastic tank was for the hydraulics it's not there anymore they have the muffler there now.

i talked on the phone with the lady and told her what i was gonna be doing and she said just as long as all the stock parts are put back on at the time of returning the unit . thats no problem because i would be taking a few things off and making new things for it and after i make a pattern for it i don't need to take the stock part off anymore unless for pictures or something.
