It will be outlawed as part of a polution control law. Only solar and electric tractors allowed!

Bob, obviously you have the advantage of not HAVING to do work with your tractor. I love the oldies, rebuild 'em, show 'em, pull 'em, and even do work with them, but...I don't HAVE to work with them. When I do I use a modern tractor, and since all under 80hp tractors are Jap any way, why not the best...Kubota. Quick attach loaders, hydro trannys, regenerative loader valves, 4wd, dsl that actually starts in the winter...the list goes on. Besides, selling Kubotas finances my antiques!!!!! BelIEve it!!! Pete

We all love our N's. I love my N. BUT.....let's try to be objective. Kubota makes an excellent product. They will still be around in the future. They can do a lot of things that the N's were never intended to do and a Kubota 3010 can do it better. Now--which one would we RATHER be using? That's another question that brings about the "oranges vs apples" controversy.

A girl from Church has a Kabota. They had trans. trouble. She said they couldn't get parts. She said they had to have a gear of some kind Made. Time it was said and done it cost them about 3,000 to get it back. She says it a great tractor Now.

Jess, Yeah yeah yeah, and my buddy bought an old garage and found two cherry 1958 vettes inside...
Ive heard this story so many times, usually it's started by a jealous JD owner, sometimes it's caused by an incompetent dealer/service center, or it could be that her tractor was one of those "gray market" Kubotas imported used by McConnell in Western NY, since they were never meant to be here, there aren't any parts here! Seriously, since the 1st Kubotas came over on 1973 there hasn't been a parts problem if she has a problems in the future, have her contact Goodrich Implement Inc. in Johnson City, NY (607)729-6161.

C'mon, you IQ is showing through!!! If 8n fender skins were made of old Kubotas, I wouldn't have had to replace 'em on the last 2n I did for the collection! Besides, Kubota even designed fenders that don't get bent when you lift your 3pt implement!! Guess Henry and Harry dropped the ball there!!! God I wish you guys were objective, ya make me sound like I hate old Fords, and I love'em, but comparing them to a Kubota L3010HST is like comparing your old Schwinn bicycle to a New Honda Goldwing!!!
