I am a current owner of a Kubota B7500 and I am jumping ship to Deere. I need a larger more powerful tractor. A friend of mine has a 990 he loves. He let me take her out for a spin this morning. I really like this tractor alot. I know its old school technology in alot of ways but that appeals to me. Anyway...
I am glad they now come with the 300CX loader. Anyone out there have this loader option? Is it much stronger than the old 430 option?
I noticed the use the 8B for the backhoe. How does this compare to the newer 447/448's? Any issues I need to know about?
My friend spun his rear tires around so that he could get a wider more stable stance. It added about 8" or so of width to each side. Seems like a good idea to me. Any problems with doing this?
If anyone wants to talk up the 990 go for it. I would love to read it. I did see one or two great reviews for this machine already. I am looking forward to placing my order after the holidays! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
