Let this guy pass me today as he was quite a bit lighter than my load and was impressed to see he had an M6 and an M5 on. First ones I have seen in my area.

Hard to get a good pic driving, but they sure looked nice!

No surprise Kubota is going larger with all the wannabes in the homeowner crowd. But competition is good. Lots of good brands in that market these days.

Yes, going to be nice seeing them giving green a run for the money in the Ag market.

I wish they would start building real construction backhoes now. I love our Case 580 Super N, but I'd love to see Kubota compete in that market. They're getting closer with the new M62 cabbed TLB that is soon to be released.

Looks great. The one thing I wonder about is whether cramming the emissions stuff under the hood is actually a good thing. Does it turn routine maintenance / minor repairs into a nightmare? (Similar to a modern diesel pickup.)
