After growing up with kubota being small compact tractors, they've definitely pulled their socks up over the last few years. I'm still a fan of a lump of an engine rather than a little engine having to work hard... I think that's still true for modern ones if the electronics allow. Nice to see there making the cabs a kind of 'standard' with other brands as well

Its a buyers market out there now with the competition between brands now Gerry. As in brands trying to get up there with the top few. Looks like a nice well laid out tractor with plenty of extras and plenty of technology built in. I suppose the price will determine how many of them enter the countryside till they get established here.

@@jerryodriscoll3691 yes when any maufacturer has to break into a New market they often keep their price competitive to get somewhat of a foothold. If they prove to have a good reliable product they will be able to increase their price as time goes on. For someone in the market for a new tractor now could be the time to have a look at one of them.

They are a fine tractor. And being Kubota will be super reliable. Only thing I have heard folk complain about is the tiny swept area of the front wiper. Also, don't get one with the small hydraulic pump. I have a new Deere 5125R on order since Xmas with everything the factory can put on it(I have a steep wet farm), won't get it until August, providing Trump doesn't close the factory in Augusta, Georgia. Price of new tractors in Ireland, particularly a well specced one like this, seems to be a well kept secret, unless the salesman thinks you're serious :) What about height over cab Gerry for getting into older buildings?
@gerry6420
4 жыл бұрын
To be honest it never rained when I had it so with know a bout the wiper coverage. But everything else I found impressive. Pump on this 1 must have been larger 1 as it was set up for a front end loader. That’s true about price. Unless ur actually buying nobody says. Cab is taller. Slightly Taller then 6930 even. Wasn’t an issue for us as all our sheds are high but could be an issue for some.
