Its been a few months since I've been shopping but I'll try to remembers some prices I got. The M5700 was the second tractor I test drove. It really sold me on Kubota. That 5 cylinder engine is probably the smoothest they make. I wanted at least 55hp on the pto so I moved up to the M6800. The best price on that was 23200 with just 2 remotes and the shuttle, take 1200 off without the shuttle. I ended up getting the m9000DTL for 24500 with 2 remotes and the standard transmission. No cab or loader. I'm sure you know how much those extras are. Lots and lots of power and the low profile I needed for working inside barns. A TN75 4wd was about 26k. A nice tractor for sure but lacks the smoothness of the kubota.
