After looking at seven other brands, we decided on the B7610 HSD based on value, ease of use, and hydraulic ratings over the other brands. After spending time driving each brand, we found you can see around and over the front of the Kubota the best even with the FEL installed. The machine has Great power for it's size and keeps coming back for more. The noise level is not bad at all, so you can operate it all day long. All the controls are easy to reach and there is plenty of room in the seat. I'm 6'5" & 300 lbs. and I have plenty of room. The price breakdown is as follows B7610 HSD with R-4 tires - $10,000, Kubota LA352 loader - $3000, Woods BH6500 backhoe - $6000, Leinbach RR5 stone rake - $500, Curtis 5FB5T power angle blade - $1750, Kubota RCK60-24B MMM - $1600. We purchased this great (not so) little tractor in PA and would highly recomend this tractor to anybody. We are curently building a house on 10.5 acres of which 6 acres will be mowed and 4 acres will be clean woods along with a 250 foot driveway to clear in the winter.
