I bought a new JD 5320 2 years ago with a 541 loader and have been less than impressed. Honestly, had I it all to do over, I would have saved myself $12,000 and bought a Farmtrac 555. It's 50 horses, 4 wd and basically a copy of the Ford 3930....dirt simple, heavy built and a proven design. It'd do everything I'd ever want to do and I would have been money ahead. Neighbors have Kubota's...seem like dependable machines to me. But i think for the money...the Indian built Farmtrac's and Mahindra's (IH copies) are the way to go. And as for this built in the USA crapola...yeah, my Deere was ASSEMBLED in Georgia from parts sourced everywhere including China. 6000 series Deere's are way beyond what I can afford. The 555 4 wd Farmtrac was priced to me with a loader for $22,000 and I am sure that price could be beat.
