What was your first Kubota and why?

I always though the Farmall Cub created the CUT. Unfortunately by the 1960's it was getting dated. They never came up with a newer CUT though. That's why Yanmar/Deere and Kubota came in...

Yeah, we had an old cub we used for one row cultivating. Road like a rock and took two men and a boy to turn the steering wheel; if you hit the turning brake too hard it would stall out. Cute little thing though.

5 acres and needed something to manage it, enter BX2370 with FEL, built an arena and a round yard as well as numerous other bits and pieces around the place, bought another place on 38 acres and suddenly it was not big enough now we have round bales to move around, traded it on a Kioti DK5810 which is fantastic but also wishing I had kept the BX for some of the little jobs that need doing, dealer sold it for $16.5k, someone got a great deal with only 175 hours.

My first Kubota was an L4400. Came with the property I bought. Also included an RCR1860 brush hog, a box blade, a plow, and the standard LA703 with I believe the standard bucket and the SSQA bucket system. I have since added some lights to the ROPS and a set of pallet forks. Pallet forks get the most use out of everything. They are used for picking up logs rather than skidding them, and I also have a winch on a trailer hitch mount that can slip into the hitch receiver built into the pallet fork frame. Slide one of the forks through the battery handle loops and just turn it into a portable winch so I can throw it on my truck as needed and also use it on the tractor for getting those logs in tough to reach places out of the woods.

Not sure why, but I just absolutely love hopping on the thing and doing a whole lot of nothing. I just find it relaxing.

Most everybody feels the same!
