I would like to thank everyone for all of the great comments. The comments helped me decide on a Kubota. I do think the JD looks like a heavier built tractor that does cost a little more. The kubota does look like it is easier to handle. Hard to tell though just driving it around the sales lot. The L3400 and L3430 gst models is what I looking at. They don"t have as much power as my Ford 3600, but they do have 4 wheel drive which I was hoping would help. With wet ground from the winter rains I can"t really use the tractor off the pavement. I was hoping the 4wd would help with this also. My Ford tractor was poorly taken care of by the previous owners. I"ve spent a lot of time fixing it up as needed. Lately it seems to be breaking down more then I care to work on it. The gst transmission will be a lot easier to handle then my Ford non-synro mesh transmission. I can get these Kubota model"s from a dealer after one rental season marked down from new price with a full warranty as new. Any additional comments would be appreciated. Thanks.
