55 Ford 650
I have started looking to upgrade my ford 650 to something in the M4600 area and I am not finding too much. If I was looking for a B or L there are quite a few to pick from. Are people just hanging on the M and upgrading to hem from the B and L or are there just not that many M out there.

In our area there seem to be a lot of MX5100's that move through the dealers' lots, but I haven't seen many on the used market. Like "none" within 300-500 miles.

The older Kubotas will last forever and there isn't a whole lot of reason for selling them. I had an M4700 and did trade it in on an M5040 but only because I needed 4wd on these hills and the M4700 was only 2wd. Otherwise I would stil have it.

You might watch estate auction listings.

There are several M series listed for sale on the DFW CL. I know because I bought a M7040 HDC with 137 hrs on the tach from CL.

I am the same way. And with proper maintenance you are not likely to get to the point where they "can't run anymore".

I would hazard to guess that Kubota makes and sells 12-15 B or BX tractors for every M. Plus people hang onto them.
