Comparison Mahindra 6065 vs. Massey 4707 vs. Kubota M6060

The MF "Global" line is made in China, I don't know where the de luxe version is made, having said so I'd not worry as even the chinese made tractors have to meet MF spec and quality

The Global series is just that. Made all over the world: tires- Norwegian, transmission and cab- Italy, Engine is designed in Finland.
Tractor is partially assembled in China at AGCO factory. Loaders are made by Quicke in Tennessee. Tractors imported to US come into Port of Baltimore and final assembled in Aberdeen, Md ( loader, tires, etc).

I like MF and I think it's an underrated tractor IMO.

Trillium Farm,

The Massey isn't really underrated. It is a new model and as such needs a few seasons to acclimate into the farming community. The china origin has skeptics, folks curious about durability. Like all brands Massey has both strong and weak geographic sales regions.

I don't know how well the 4700 is selling and this is NOT really a farming forum. But AGCO invested an enormous $$ in the design and I have NOT seen negative rewiews. There were a few initial hiccups, quickly rectified.

I have driven the tractor at a farm show, there is much to like. Massey dealers have an awesome line-up these days w/ mid-range tractors.
The 5700 XL is also PREMIUM machine w/ features not generally found on the 100-120 hp range.

The underrated label is disappearing, unfortunately so are the smaller family farms that purchase these tractors.

Really not a lot wrong with China stuff, they help bring over industries from around the world. Then "borrow" the designs and turn around and make the same stuff under a different name. Don't even need an R&D shop
