I don't think you'll be to disappointed with either one. In 2010 I bought a new Kubota RTV. My cousin has a John Deere I think 850D XUV gator is the model. He bought his new I think a year or so before I bought mine. It's a diesel Gator. Both of us use them everyday and neither of us have had any problems. His is fully independent suspension so the ride is a little nicer. It also outruns my Kubota hands down. I think mine is heavier made and carries a load better. Assuming both are in like condition I would say go with which ever will work better, diesel or gas. For me I prefer diesel and wouldn't want a gas. That's just my personal opinion. Like everything though there are things I like better on the Kubota and there are things I like better on the JD. The biggest weakness on the RTV I just found out about a couple weeks ago. I looked down and saw daylight peeking through the floormat. I pulled it up and I have a half dollar hole rusted out in the floorboard. I was kinda dumbfounded and looked online. From what I've read I guess this is a common problem with the RTV's. Something to look at with the used one you're looking at. Other than that I haven't had any complaints at all about it. Now if I was looking for a new one I don't care for either new models of the JD or the Kubota. So I don't really know which one I'd go with.

Today's Featured Article - Timing Your Magneto Ignition Tractor - by Chris Pratt. If you have done major engine work or restored your tractor, chances are you removed the magneto and spark plug wires and eventually reached the point where you had to put it all back together and make it run. On our first cosmetic restoration, not having a manual, we carefully marked the wires, taped the magneto in the position it came off, and were careful not to turn the engine over while we had these components off. We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
