After hours and hours of tilling, haying, Loader work and hoggin, you can't beat a Kubota. For the price, warranty, and durability. We had a 70HP New Holland and It was a great tractor but the clutches in em are junk, In My area we have Orange, blue, and Deere. Most every one around here in our business has had problems with New Holland Clutches, and just about all of the folks in our are are goin orange over the last few years, they stand behind their rigs and a normal joe can afford one, unlike a Deere.
Also My uncle just bought a new Kubota at 0% interest and for 3 years.
I have trouble believing a word you say. So you turkey boys can tell cattlemen what tractor to buy because of how hard you work?
If the clutch goes on a tractor, any tractor , the first place to look is the operator.
If tractors go to the repair shop and keep breaking then the repair wasn't right. Look at the shop. Whats the name of the shop there that can't fix clutches?
There is no problem with New Holland clutches.
Tulsa - notice most of the experienced folks are leaning towards 50 - 65 horses in an older machine. Myself, I wouldn't be without a front end loader, but lotsa folks get by, especially if they do small squares. And lots of even bigger guys around here have never owned 4 wheel drive.
Look at the weight of some of this foreign stuff, I think a lot of them would break in half trying to do some of the work an older U.S. made machine can do.

Of course it will be slanted towards buying new but will be talking about size and horse power. I bought a new JD last year a 5303 55 horse at the PTO so far has handled everything ok. When I bought it didn't have to be green just needed to fit the budget and be big enough to handle the job. Looked at all of them and JD won out with horse power range and price.

I like this site. You know instead of trading in and going bigger, Since my M5700 is paid for, I would really like to get a Skid Steer. Do you know much about them?
