I have had several skid steer loaders with Kubota motors in them. Bobcat 773s. They all where good cold starting too.

I may cross over to the dark side in the near future. LOL I have been looking at a newer loader tractor to add to herd. With the Daughter now needing a tractor over there I am kind of short one loader tractor. I bought a good lower houred JD 6410 to take the load off the JD 6400. I do not like the newer JD 6000 series as they are loaded with electronics. I have been looking at several used Kubota tractors. They seem well built and are simpler designed tractor. I do not want a bunch of bells and whistles on a chore tractor. The one trouble I am having is finding the larger Kubota tractors without cabs. I want an open station as several of my sheds are too low for a cab. I would even need a folding roll bar which I am not sure Kubota offers either.

I don't have an issue with the 6x10 series tractors, the 6x20 and 6x30 had a lot more electronic issues that I as a mechanic really got to hate.
On the topic of cold starting and in particular the manifold heater, I can't tell of how many times I demonstrated them on 6000 series tractors to owners that had run them for years.

JD Like Philip said below. What you want is a M 9000 DT with hydraulic shuttle. E mail me a phone number and first low hour one I see I,ll point you too it. Still see some relative low hour ones come thru. A M 9580 would be nice but most of those are too old and have many hours .

If you can find a later model M8200 or M9000
(Later models had a hydraulic shuttle) they were near bullet proof.
