Kubota Announces the new Grand L70

   / Kubota Announces the new Grand L70 #21  
The brochure pictures look really nice. I am looking at replacing my Workmaster 75 with tractor with HST at some time, although that means stepping down from 75 hp to 60 hp. She is worried about what happens if I am unable to drive the Workmaster 75 to mow. Something easier for my wife to operate than a geared tractor, although she is a quick learner. She operates her TC40DA HST without an issue and we did with it, just no cab. The Workmaster 25 is HST so that is not an issue.

You might want to look at a tractor with an IVT transmission. The Fent 209 Vario's look darned nice.

Overall, the L70 looks to be a great package. The heated swivel seat is a nice add and the loader mounted lights are a big plus!

I like the idea of a remote start, but I don't see it being of much use if the tractor is stored inside. I can't imagine many owners leaving a near $100K machine outside exposed to the elements.

Hopefully, some improvements have been made in sound proofing the new cab. There is no way I would be able to make a hands free cellphone call in my L6060HSTC with the engine running.

Looking forward to seeing one in person though.

I put a stereo in my L4060hstc. It had Bluetooth & a mic. Used it for calls once or twice, but things were to noisy. So ya, hopefully a quieter cab or at least good noise canceling.

Might make sense to lease as electronics are wonderful when everything is working but the pits when gremlins show up…

With relative low volume the projected longevity is my concern because I tend to keep forever… and electronic parts are often the first too go followed by curved cab glass…

john deere 4075 would get you the extra 15HP plus up here they are tax exempt due to the power rating so that saves another 15% tax.

but then you own a deere. Their corporate decisions like made in mexico and no right to work on your own tractor, mean no one should ever buy a deere. At least if they live in America and like to actually own what they buy. Sure they've been forced to make some changes, but you know they will revert as soon as they can.

A few Notes:
Only lists HST as an option.
Nokian snow tires are an option
Has neat loader mounted lights
Largest is 60HP
Factory grill insert option
Multi function joystick
Remote start option
I don’t see any loader mounted lights in your photo or the video in post #5.
Did you mean the cab mounted lights?
