....Kubota are have been for years buying parts from Korea, china, japan etc and then just assembling them

Kubota just assembles parts they buy from those countries ? Really? You do not know what you are talking about ... :thumbdown:

John deere and Kubota are have been for years buying parts from Korea, china, japan etc and then just assembling them

Kubota is one of the only companies that engineer and manufacture the whole tractor top to bottom, including the engine. They are most certainly not assembling parts as you say. Wheels/tires are the only major parts they sub out. They even make their own loaders and buckets.

And Rolex watches are really made from Timex parts.

Actually Kubota did have Bradco make the backhoe for my loader and a company called H&H makes, or made most of their buckets.

True, but he said.... Just assembles parts... as if the Kubota engine transmission and frame were built by someone else. Totally incorrect.

I should have said, that H&H is probably only a Canadian thing. Does someone in the States make their buckets exclusively?

Aside from tires, I don't think anyone other than Deere made components for our Manheim buit 6200.

I owned a telehandler, Dynalift that was a mish mash of different but high quality components, Chrysler Engine, Allison Transmission, Spicer Axles. Eaton Pump. Nothing at all wrong with high quality components.

Years ago Zetor tractors had awesome lifting power but they came with 90 weight fluid in the lift system. All things are not always equal.

The price difference for the top brands is just a sunk cost, you get back more than that difference on any resale and the top brands are much easier to sell.[/QUOTE

I don稚 see any better resale value when I figure it as a percentage.

Branson also engineers and builds their tractors from top to bottom. As far as loaders or backhoes, that's another subject. Most, if not all, are made by aftermarket companies and they just rebrand it as Kubota or Branson or whatever brand they are selling to. The proof of that is that in Europe, not a single tractor manufacturer will sell tractors with "OEM" loaders. If the buyer wants one, it will have to be an aftermarket one.

Kubota does build their loaders in Georgia! As well as backhoes! They do that to assure that the attaching points are able to handle the loads without issues that other manufacturers have had in the past. They also are able to size the cylinders and valves for the hydraulic system so everything is able to work at it's best for the longer life. They are probably the most American built tractor at this time.

I didnt say all parts and I know they make a lot of their own as well. All I am saying is certain brands arent as made in America inclusive as you think and still share a lot of common parts like engines, etc.
