Kubota MX5800 vs John Deere 4066M

Dagwood55 · Apr 28, 2018

Been shopping for a tractor for a few months. Finally sold one of my little tractors (JD 4200 w/ FEL) and I'm keeping a little JD 870 for the garden. And I've lowered my sights a little as I thought I wanted a JD 5075 or equivalent Kubota. Just can't justify that much tractor and the price that goes with it.

So I'm backing down a little. Since I love a hydrostat gonna stick with that. I also want/need a FEL and will be adding a grapple. And I want to bush hog 20 acres witha 8' double blade cutter.

So I'm now looking at a Kubota MX5800 and a JD 4066. Close to the same price to not be a difference, same weight, close to everything near as I can tell. And the one I like the best is the last one I looked at tho I'm leaning just a bit toward orange.

Anyone else looked at or owned both??

Thanks,

Have you checked out the TYM at Bush Tractor in Ft. Smith? If not, you may be pleased at the amount of tractor you get for your dollar.....
