Like has been said...dealerships mean alot. After years of sellin", workin", buyin", tradin", and workin" on and with most of the brands out there I rank them like this if service and support are equal: 1)Kubota-toughest, lots of technology and dealer support, great resale/trade value and longevity.
2)NH (I guess CaseIH here now too as they are one and the same it seems)very tough, long lasting, great dealer support, little less expensive usually and not as good resale/trade value, not as much technology.
3JD-Great resale, pricey (usually comparable to Kubota), lotsa technology, not as rugged as a rule but depends on what you are gonna do with it, lotsa brand loyalty (lotsa rabid Deere fans actually think Deere something to do with the manufacturing process!) Great dealer support.
IF and this is a BIG if...you have a good long term experienced Kioti dealer around you...I would put them third...they are tanks and the technology is gettin" there...lotsa bang for the buck! BUT they are like the NH...you cant have resale/trade value in mind when purchasing them. Like NH if you plan on keepin" it for yearrrrrrrrrrrssss lotsa tractor for the money. All in all Kubota pans out to be the best investment all the way around I think.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
