I use a Kubota tractor at work and is is comfortable and reliable, an excellent piece of kit.

It took me many years of wanting, and waiting, but about 4 years ago .......I finally got a low hours (just over 800), 8 year old, M6040, with full cab. I love it so much....I’m often tempted to go sleep in it! 😁 memtb

They seem to have good dealer support.

Mine's only 26 horse...just climbed off of it - unloaded a generator, cooler full of ice, some lumber and other stuff from the pick-up. A little tractor goes a long way replacing the teenagers who have left home.

I bought a used 21 hp about 5 years ago. Looks like I can sell it for more than I paid. Handy for all kinds of stuff. Looking for a 40-50 low hour model from around 2005 now.

I had a L4200, 4FWD with loader. It was a nice tractor, but loader bucket was not quick attach, and I needed to replace the tires. Sold it for more than I gave for it, and bought the same size NH, that was better suited for what I wanted.

A zero turn mower with a diesel engine should be the cat's pajamas.

I have an L47 loader/backhoe that they make for rental shops ect. I am impressed with it.

I have a buddy who has 3 kubotas. He swears by them and is looking at a skid steer. Seem well built as he is hard on his equipment.

Save the money difference, a Kubota should beat an old Ford all hollow.

Looking real hard at a L2501, with FEL and a Brush Hog, and a box blade. Not sure about the Tier IV emission stuff, beyond 25HP. As always bigger HP could be better. Trouble is there are so many others that have the same capacity for work. Moving and I don't know the dealers. That will make my mind up.

When I thought it time to put a bullet in my old Ford, I told the tractor specialist that had been helping me that I was considering a Kubota replacement but felt guilty about buying Japanese. The Alternative was John Deere but it was 12% more money.

He said if I was concerned about buying Jap made, how did I feel about made in India, as that was where the 50 horse JD was made at the time, maybe Korea before that. That sealed he deal & my Kubota was a nice tractor. Felt comfortable using it & owning it..

A few years later my needs changed & I sold it. But if I needed another new tractor in that power range I would buy another Kubota.

L2500DT here. After the zombie apocalypse I presume it will be me, cockroaches, Lincoln sa200 welders, m1 carbines and the 7.3 Powerstroke fellas holding what’s left of the earth together.

Just got off my G1900 diesel garden tractor mowing the yard. Have kubota diesels in several pieces of equipment.
Kubota is GTG in my book. The Toyota of equipment.

We have one of these (with the cabin) at work, works okay but bogs easily.

Toro diesel


I will admit that reversing the zero turn then pushing hard forward never gets old, the one at work lifts about two and a half feet.

Prefer being in the Toro when going over dog shit though...and air con helps as well.
