This summer, i decided to trade up my almost 10 year old Formal 95. Looked first at Kubota as i have a 7040 with loader. It does what i want it to do, but its way too light to be an almost 70 horse
tractor. It acts more like a 45-50 horse. Last fall i needed to make a few cornstalk bales with a smaller New Holland round baler. When the bales got close to being done, the tractor would rock. Had
to go real slow and was happy to be done after about 20 bales. The front end assist is light and had to replace bearings even though i was careful not to abuse it when loading manure- fortunately
was still under warranty and the dealer was good about it. Also be sure to keep checking the wheel nuts. The dealer had an M5 in stock, but i could see that it was way too light for tillage, etc. The
dealer didn't have the bigger M6 and said they could get one from another dealer, but couldn't offer any special pricing or deals. To make a long story short, bought a JD 6110M. From what i see now,
it is a great tractor and so much better than what i had before and light years ahead of the Kubota. Of course it is a bigger tractor and will be used for bigger jobs. Got one that had a few
demonstrator hours on it and paid less than the orange brand. Really happy right now with the JD, but , of course, time will tell.Everybody says Kubota is so great, but you can get problems too -
neighbor got rid of his because it went through hydraulic pumps. I think they are riding a lot of hype right now and will eventually prove out to be just like any other brand. Be sure to get a bigger
model than you think you need as they are lighter and the horsepower ratings are made at higher RPM's than some of the others. Anything newer than about 2014 will use DEF- you will have to get it
if you want a more recent model year. The 6110M uses very little. again time will tell.
