Kubota are all from Japan. John Deere owns Yanmar which is from Japan. In fact most compact tractors from all major names come from Japan. Engines from Japan are easily some of the best in the world, Kubota, Yanmar and Isuzu to name some common ones. John Deere is in partnership with Hitachi for large excavators. All major excavator manufacturers machines are based on technology from Japan. Isuzu is building engines for GM! I don't think anything from Japan can be faulted. China is catching up in a big hurry as well as Korea. Lots of big name companies have stuff made in China that is high quality. Toyota is going to take over the number one spot from GM. I think it's really hard to say that foreign equipment isn't as good or better than what's made in North America. Certain things are, but Kubota is just as good as anything on the market in most respects. I think the big manufacturers here had a lot to do with it. If they are losing sales, they are to blame as much or more, as anyone else. For Japan it's kind of strange because they get most of the raw materials from here. Hmmm. Dave
