Re: Kubota \"Throw away tractor\"?
BigPete,
It is interesting on how this post/thread has started from the imaturity of a salesperson to, well yeah your right, extreme modifiers. Kubota's are good tractors, but all of a sudden everyone here has bragged up the Kubota so much that it would make one think there is no other tractor out there. I went through the various posts and you know what? There is a lot of Kubota post with problems just like the rest.
In fact look at the amount of posts Kubota has verses John Deere and New Holland. Why does Kubota have more? Well I am sure there is a lot more Kubota's out there? Or it could be that there is more problems out there? I think it has to be a combination of both. But I can pretty much assure you that for every good story about a Kubota, there probably is a bad story about them also. For every bad New Holland sales person there is one bad Kubota sales peson. That was my case. In fact I had no intention of looking at New Holland until the Kubota dealer bad mouthed New Holland so bad I just had to go look at one to see how bad they were. Gee Im driving a New Holland. This whole discussion group is not to dictate who is the best out there, but to help other people in making their decision. We help with Horsepower, we help with Hydro, we help with sales techniques, we help with what is the best implement. I know my dad's neighbor would never say "never" with his Kubota.
I know it is nature to protect our little tractors but this thread I think got way off track. Sorry if I upset anyone.
