I've run a 3038e for around 4 or 5 years and have had no problems. Mainly bushogging, spraying pasture and fence lines, moving dirt/cleanout, dragging trees, moving trailers, disking, spreading seed, pulling a small cultipacker, etc Love the hydrostat for tight places and hillsides. It is light, which has been handy bushogging around ponds and wet spots, but there is a trade off on traction. It's plain jane on extras, loader is fixed, and ROP is fixed (but will fit under a 7' door). Main things I'd change are a larger fuel tank and a decent spot for a tool box. Used within it's size/design requirements mine has been a solid no frills machine.
