Buying Advice Kubota M7060HDC vs NH Workmaster 75 vs Kioti RX7320

[nybirdman]

A friend purchased a T75,had all kinds of small problems and promptly traded it for a Case(same co.) 120 H.P.I believe the T75 are built in Turkey.

I would have preferred a 4 cylinder but to get that meant moving up to the PowerStar 75. Same 74 HP for the engine but a 4 cylinder 3.4L engine with 65 HP PTO, instead of the 60 HP PTO with the WM75 3 cylinder. Also would have been an additional $7,000 and no R4 option, only R1s.

I checked with 4Bros today. The PowerStar 75 runs $49,900 with radial R4's, swiveling air ride seat, 4 cylinder 3.4L engine. Seems to me it ranks right even, or better than, the M7060. I appreciate that 4Bros answers the phone and my questions quickly. Still waiting on feedback from a Kubota dealer. I only I could get wish I could get a close look at the RX7320 Kioti.

There you go. If you are not brand loyal, which makes you smart, keep playing the Kubota and NH dealer off each other until one of them EARNS your business.
Youll know when it feels right. Keep researching, asking questions and clarifications. Youll be surprised what you find out on your buying journey.
One thing I would still give a nod to on Kubota: They tend to build almost all their own sub assemblies in house. They do not subcontract to the extent some others do. I think this is an underestimated advantage.

You are probably correct about Kubota being vertically integrated. Don't know, but it makes sense.

Now its down to what dealer makes me feel like they want another customer (me). I didn't say it before, but the guy who gave me pricing today on the Powerstar was one of the owners. Maybe I'll hear from the Kubota dealer in Tyler tomorrow...

I took delivery of my MX5400 last week from the Tyler Kubota. I have to say, when it was all said and done, I got a lot for my money. At first, I didn't believe I was getting as much off the MSRP as I thought I was going to, but after adding up all the prep and additions they did to it, I calculated I got about 11% off of the "Build Your Kubota" price. I priced my tractor and implements in Athens, Wills Point and Tyler. The initial quotes were quite interesting. Tyler beat Athens by $1000, and Wills Point by $2000. My salesman has done a great job with getting me what I need. They day the tractor was supposed to be delivered, the Monday after Christmas, the truck driver called in sick with an undetermined return date. They hired a flatbed tow truck to deliver it. Yeah, very pleased with he folks in Tyler so far.

I bought a Case 75A almost a year ago. It's the red version of the Workmaster 75. Check the Case forum for my thread on it. I have around 115 hours on it now and have been very pleased.

Thanks for the comment. However, the Case website returns "No dealers found" here in east Texas. I appreciate that NH is virtually the same. AND, I am actually leaning hard in that direction. The NH dealer has stock, and they answer the phone for my many questions. I have sent them pictures of my old Ford 4000 to get a trade in value. We'll see where it goes.

You know, I sent them a request via their website on Monday... No response. I called the Tyler store and the Henderson store today, having heard nothing back. BOTH stores are closed (since last Thursday) until Monday next week for inventory. What if I actually needed help (instead of wanting to spend money)?

Not confidence inspiring.

I'm glad you had a good experience with them.

A full shutdown for 7 business days for inventory is absurd. I worked for 20 years at a dealership that did a full physical inventory annually in less than a week without missing a phone call. Yes, it was a huge PIA and noncritical orders and concerns got shuffled. But everything that HAD to happen did.
There's a wanna be major tractor manufacturer that pulls the same stunt, it's ridiculous.

 

[jezreel]

Yeah I agree! ! ! 7 days is crazy absurd. Im glad I got my machine before big shut-down! They still have a disc harrow they need to deliver. I was expecting it this week. Guess I was wrong:laughing::laughing::laughing:
