First post here,
Like the title says I am trying to compare the MF 1760 vs the Kubota
L6060. I live on about 4 acres, where I mow fields, have a garden, lug firewood around. Also, I have a 5+ acre blackberry field that I need to mow, spray, fumigate (why I need a cab). I am really looking for a dual purpose tractor. Do not want to put up the money for a vineyard tractor. I currently have a JD 3032 but really need the cab and the HP but, I want to keep the footprint of a new tractor just as tight.
I am planning on getting skinny tires and want a high HP tractor that can get through my narrow rows. Like to run a hydraulic pump, have grapple on the front for removing dead canes each year.
My local MF dealer is a questionable person, he sells Mahindra too. The Kubota dealer is a nice guy. JD has a huge presence here but, there are way too many row crop farmers around with big machines for me to get anything close to good service.
The MF checks all of the boxes but, is it robust? I am not a 100 hr a year type person. More like 500/ yr. I love the no Def/ no DPF.
Does the Kubota even have a air ride seat?
Also Ok with buying something with a few years on it.
Any advice/ experience would be helpful.
Thanks,
Ricker
