Kioti ck2610 vs Kubota 2501

So where痴 the link to the market share report. More hearsay without traceable data. Pretty sure Deere would lead in overall tractor sales, as Kubota makes no large ag equipment.

There isn't much sports on TV lately. Everybody has to have a team to root for.

Substitute brand for team. "Who will win Tractorbowl 2020?"

Market share figures are not available to the general public. What I said is not hearsay. That's what there is too much of on this site, hearsay. That's why I removed myself for @ 4 yrs. and just got back on.
W/o revealing myself too much, you can believe @ 98% of what I say. If it is incorrect, I won't even bring it up.
And finn1, as I said market share #'s are based on hp. categories, not total of tractors sold.
If you're looking under 50hp, yes Kub. will most likely be the leader. if you look at 70 to 100 hp, then Deere will most likely be the leader. But Deere is not the leader in under 50.
See how that works?

Wait, aren't o'all sales the way to determine the best tractor for a group of tasks?? Oh.

Either way, I asked the tattoo man if he can cover over the New Holland and Branson logos on my biceps.

He said the existing colors will make things tough, but he can redo JD onto the right arm and Kubota onto the left one.

(Whew, that was close.)

Jeepers... pretty soon you guys will be pulling out willie's to measure. :shocked:

 

[the old grind]

They've been waving Kubota's around for a week.

btw, just for you:



Kubota operators wave to each other like Jeep and Corvette drivers do, don't they?

No secret here.... I like Kubota. I wouldn't buy anything else... But, that's just me. Ya'll feel free to buy what you like as well. :thumbsup: BTW, that was a ruler... I'll need a yard stick. :cool2:

Folks in the industry are well aware of the market numbers, it's not a secret to anyone. I don't know why some here are so skeptical/ignorant about it, or give Jeff a hard time -- he's just reciting industry word of mouth.

Here are the numbers from 2017 -- Kubota 47%, Deere 19%, in the "under 80 HP" North American market:

Industry Shift: Kubota’s Pursuit to be a Global Full Liner | Rural Lifestyle Dealer

When Kubota put out a press release about crossing 51% in the US some years ago (which gave them the mathematical ability to claim #1) I recall it was for compact tractors only but don't know the HP range. You can google if you want to read it. All their press releases are online.

Ford sells more pickups, so why would a guy buy a Ram or GM?

Perfect logic there.

Should we ask the mods to move this thread to the Kubota forum? :laughing:

Read the disclaimer at the bottom that states the sales data is not considered reliable because there is no mandatory requlation requiring registration.

In other words, not all manufacturers provide sales information.
