Looks like a beast. Are you looking to purchase?

Nope. My M6-131 is plenty of HP for me. What model Kubota did you buy and how is it doing for you?

I got a dink. B2650.

The advice was to figure what is needed and go one size bigger. That’s not wrong but will lead to the one you posted.

This one does 95% of why I got a tractor.

What would it take to do the other 5%?

Pretty neat that the arm rest of the driver's seat has the joystick and controls incorporated into it...

Unless you are a lefty.

I'd probably have to go to school before I could even operate a tractor of that caliber.

Yup, I would too. Very complex. There are features on my M6 that I haven't used yet, like auto shift. If I roaded it a lot, that would be useful.

If you go to Messicks.com and scroll down to the row of videos, there is one on the M8. I didn't watch the whole thing but it shows it in action pulling a vertical tillage tool at 10 mph.

There are a lot of interesting and informative videos on their site. There must be a lot of agriculture in PA for them to have 5 locations and sell all the brands that they do.

More power!
But, then I'd try to do more and want additional power.

I'd just tear up more stuff with more power.

Anson, what do you use your M6 for?

there is that, Barry. If I had the power, id move manure with a snow bucket!

Anson, what do you use your M6 for?

This tractor replaced a JD 4430, 135 HP tractor and a JD 3020 71HP tractor with loader. I made the decision to go with more horsepower than I currently need and replace two tractors with one. Right now, the M6 powers a massive 8 foot Bush Hog. Can't get around the crop fields with anything larger. Occasionally, I borrow or rent my neighbors 20 foot batwing mower. I haven't used the M6 on it yet but it has 1000 RPM pto as well as 540. Also wanted to be able to run a big round baler if I choose to turn row crop back into a hay field.

I use the loader for moving horse exhaust, dirt, gravel, big bales, dead deer etc. This tractor will do everything I need done. So why do I have the hots for a 4X4 60-70 HP open station tractor with loader? To be used on "nice" days. Not for blading snow at 10 degrees or mowing when it's 100.

We loves our Orange on the tree farm !!! Running 5 of them, currently. Would like to have one a.whisker bigger than what we have. But that new M8 would be pretty serious overkill. I like it, though !!!!!
