Right now our "users" are two JDs and a Kubota. As to "why", it just happened that way. We do tend to buy good low hr. tools instead of new.Why do you own both Kubota and Deere? Which one do you like best?
The JDs are tough enough to live forever, but the tractor we use daily is the Kubota simply because it is a handy size and more comfortable. That's more because of the model than the brand. If the sizes were different it could just as easily be the other way around.
Good tractors seem to last a very long time. They get old slowly & tend to work tomorrow like they did today. But we no longer make our living with them.
