Upgrading to larger tractor, which Kubota?

[Number15]

If you are considering other brands I suggest you give the branson a look. I am new to the tractor scene but have been around equipment my whole life. The Branson seems well built, is dead simple and saved me about 10k over the Kubota I was considering. I only have 7 hours on it but so far so good.

I have two older Fords, and a 2006 Kubota L48TLB.
If I were looking for a new tractor, the Branson would be my first look,....... though prior to looking at all, Kubota would be my first choice!

I looked at all of the brands, and I saw no savings more than about 5% over Kubota when I was doing my shopping. But there was a huge price increase for going green.

Kubota M6060 cab with all the implements I wanted was over 10k more that what I got 5520ch. Granted the kubota is a little more powerful and it is a nice shade of orange. Green was way more and unavailable so it was a non starter.

I work part time for a gentleman on his 160 acre country home.

Doubt if $10,000 will be the deciding factor in this thread.

Probably brand prestige and convenient service will be more important.
