I've bought 13 Kubotas over the past 9 years. I bought my first one because the comparable Deere was $3000 more and the Blue was $2500 more. That's why I started with Kubota. My dealer (Barlows) wants to sell tractors and he prices them to move locally and for nation wide delivery. The other color dealers locally sell a lot fewer tractors and have to make more profit, I understand that and have no problem with it.
As long as Barlows sells Kubotas to me for a great price, I'll continue buying from him even though I've finally got the 5 I need, I've finished buying.:laughing::laughing:
I've stayed with Kubota because they have been fine working machines with almost no problems, my dealer (Barlows) has continued to give me good deals on trades and I LIKE them.
I don't dislike any of the others because I haven't owned any of the others, course some people don't like anything they don't have and know nothing about.
My suggestion, listen to people that have actual experience, like TripleR who owns different brands, and don't listen to people that don't have actual experience. If I ever offer an opinion on any brand but Kubota......don't listen to me, I've never owned any other brand tractor.:thumbsup:
I also agree with MOST of the others that have posted here, determine your needs, check different brands for the best machine to fulfill your needs at the price you can sleep with.:thumbsup: If you decide it's a Kubota, check with Barlows for a price delivered to you as many, many others have.
