Took a trip to check out the YT359C tractor. My first impression was WOW!
The yanmar fit and finish is better than any kubota or john deere i have looked it. The attention to details is incredable. The frame is very solid! I like the cab roof design with its low profile stance and a real metal roof skin!! The transmission has a nice skid plate for protection. The tie rod
Joint boots are protected by a steel rod that extends from the frame rail. Rear axle housing has a nice sight glass for oil level. Hood tilts to 90 deg for easy access under the hood. Nice thick hood hinge and metal hood! The cab is i think best in class. I have been a huge kubota fan for the last 12 years owning two grand L cab tractors. The yanmar cab is much nicer in every aspect with the exception of no air ride seat as a option. You can tell the yanmar is pure quality and well designed! Totally impressed by the yanmar new cab tractors to the point that I will be switching over from Kubota to yanmar as soon as my kubota has a buyer. Im not saying Kubota is a bad product at all, moreover I have over 3700 hours of trubble free reliability ftom my two kubotas. I just want the best tractor money can buy and i really think it is the yanmar hands down. The price is also much less than Kubota which is a plus too!
Dealer network to me means nothing because i do all my own mechanical work, service, etc. Just wanted to share my views on the new yanmar lineup.
