New MX for 2014

Back on topic, I just found this out while checking specs in another thread:

Interesting.... the MX5200 LA1065 loader is rated for 200lbs less weight than the MX5100s LA844: 2275 vs 2443. See documentation on LA1065 here: Products: LA1065 Kubota Canada Ltd. and LA844 here: Products: LA844 Kubota Canada Ltd.

I know on the L60 series it's rated less because they come standard with ssqa. I assume the same is true here.

Yea, I agree, I hope to run my 2012 MX4700 for the next several decades. They can have their emission improvements.

And you will. MX4700s are very good tractors.

it is. and thus confused customers will forever think a Kubota lifts half what other tractors do because they rate things with the equipment they are sold with 99% if the time, rather than gunning for the highest number they can legally put on a spec sheet.

Ha...yeah it's all in the details. I think it was a wise move to make ssqa standard equipment though. It's to bad there wasn't a way they could beef the tractor and loader up to make the same specs with it included.
