Kubota L2900 5.00 star(s) (4)

A Reliable Tractor
Model Year: 1995

I purchased the tractor new with a front end loader attachment. I have been very pleased with the unit. It starts after a long time on not running. It has 4 wheel drive which is great in the snow and hauling logs. The tractor is key to my being able to work 15 acres by myself.

Pros: Reliable and trustworthty and very servicable.
Cons: Hard to check oil level. Glow plug indicator is intermittent.

My Kubota L2900
Model Year: 1996

My friend has the same model that I had used several times. It seemed heavier duty than a similar size tractor of a different make I had also used. I settled on the turf tires because it was a used tractor. I think I would have preferred the industrial style but I have not had any issues with the turf tires in the barnyard or in the snow and slush. I got a great deal on rear blower with the tractor which had hydraulic chute swivel. So I had the dealership add the rear remote. That was a little bit of a pain finding the part. I really like my tractor and cant imagine how I survived so long without one.

Pros: Heavy duty bucket, hydroslide transmission.
Cons: Stands for front loader is a little hoaky, no toolbox, some lever locations are too close to the seatbelt mechanism, no rear lights.

Great Machine
Model Year: 1997

Purchased used at a great price because there was a little smoke coming out of crankcase vent. Have used it for over 200 hours and had no major problems. Because of its age, I am starting to replace hydraulic lines. The engine is strong and starts every time.

Pros: Reliable and plenty of power.
Cons: Mesquite thorns cause flat tires.

Overall Experience
Model Year: 0

Tractor is L2900GST with a Loader and 3 pt inch back hoe. I mainly use the tractor for tillage and planting sweet corn, preparing ground for blueberries. Splitting fire wood using the tractor's rr remotes that I installed running a line off the back side of the loader, bush hog mowing, spraying, chipping wood with a PTO driven chipper, and general clean up around the house, plowing snow, and running a generator with it during power outages. It handled all of the above It surprised me when I used the back hoe to dig footers for a pole barn that had to be set on top of cement block because it was built on the side of the hill. It is a small machine but with patience I was able to dig everything, saving me thousands of $$. I have been well pleased with it.

Pros: Easy to manuever, engine has plenty of torque and HP for up to 60 9nch widths when tilling.
Cons: Needed to put fluid in tires to increase traction and make it more stable for loader work.
