In Reply to: Kubota vs John Deere posted by Beamer on October 23, 2005 at 22:32:04:
I have a Kubota M4700, a BX2200, and a ZD21 and wouldn't trade them for anything. Also have a JD 4600 and just got rid of a 5210. I joke about the Kuboata's that we check the oil once a year whether they need it or not. They start below zero with no block heaters, and they do stuff that tractors larger than them shouldn't do. Never turned a wrench on a Kubota as long as we've had them, except to change fluids and filters. The JD's on the other hand are hard to start in the winter even with a block heater. The loader on the 4600 can be rocked back and forth 4" just by grabing ahold of the side and shaking it. busted a plastic hood on both the 4600 and the 5210. With the Kubota I used to run a 5x5 round baler until I got my big Oliver 1955. It has 42pto hp and ran a baler that called for 60pto hp. I think Deere still makes some good bigger tractors but on the smaller one's from my experience Kubota has em wooped. Kubota has been coming on pretty strong in the larger one's to though, the new M125 I have been looking at looks just as good as anything Deere makes and can be had for about $20,000 less than a deere. I know if I was in a predicament that my life depended on I would choose the Kubota over the Deere.
