I think the size thing is the reason they are so good. They are Ag tractors, designed to work small farms in Japan, and most areas of the World. As a result, they are built tough. So when they get to North America, and we use them to mow the lawn, or haul the garbage to the end of the driveway, and maybe do light work, we are amazed at how well they last. They are capable of much more than we use them for.
I think about our old dairy farm. Up until the mid 80's the highest hp tractor we ever had was about 40hp (IH 454), and it was a powerhouse compared to our other tractors. And we got everything done.
My 50hp Kubota is every bit as good as the old IH, and even the MF 135, but you can't compare them to the 100hp behemoths of today's megafarms.
I love my '66 Ford 5000, but my 2005 MX5000 Kubota (50hp 4wd) is just as good a tractor (maybe better).
