I think the OP was having second thoughts and looking to get his deposit back and go for another brand.

Regardless of the brand you choose, consider which dealer is closer, has the best maintenance / parts department and the most knowledgeable staff.

I went with the Kioti NS 6010 HST being delivered tomorrow for the above reasons and the dealer is only 30 minutes away, money save I added a 77" wide grappler and put the rest towards a PTO wood chipper and stump grinder.

Hate to see Kubota price themselves out of the market. If I was buying today I would have to consider another brand IF the equivalent tractor was $10k-$20K cheaper. I could eat a $5k difference for the Kubota quality.
2nd doubts about a big purchase are common, been there many times myself.
i'd say let the OP enjoy the honeymoon with his new rig &, in time, he'll know he made the right decision. any cost savings or excess will soon be forgotten, regards,

I am a consumer and the Kubota dealers near me didn't seem to want me to buy anything. I got the sense they wanted large ag farmers who would bring the vehicles back in for service on a regular basis. My Deere wasn't one of the ones made in Mexico but after Deere announced trashing US jobs in favor of moving to Mexico I still call it my "Juan Deere."
true, dealer support of any make tractor varies per locale. be interesting to hear what region you live in where Kubota deals with heavy agri rather than consumer market since in general, Kubota seems to cater to the compact hobby market, etc. regards,

While I may only own the baby of the Grand L's, I can tell you you'll love that thing. These L60s are awesome.
