Buying Advice John deere 333e vs svl90-2hfc

[Csctl]

Guys im looking at purchasing either a used jd 333e-100hrs, cab,heat/ac, warranty till 11-16 for 60k with 2.9% or a new kubota svl90-2 cab, heat/ac, hi flow, warranty for 2 years for 68k with 0%.
I plan on using it to clear land, dig basement, clean/maintain gravelbar, and tend to the goats. The spec that really stands out is the bucket breakout force. It is basically double on the jd compared to kubota, but, i know jd rates theirs in a different manner and want to make sure im comparing apples to apples. I have read where several warranty claims have been denied by both manufactures. Anybody have experience to share with either that could guide me? The jd will be dropped off this week for me to demo. Thanks for your help

the Kubota is a night and day better machine than the Deere. The spec sheets are bunk, they rate them with an extremely short foundry bucket that over states the actual breakout. Put them in a pile of dirt and see how they feel. The wet sticks of the kubota have a vasty better feel.

IMO, your prices are extremely high. I'd expect a much better discount on the Deere given the 100 hours. you can buy stuff out of rentel fleets with low hours like that for much less. The SVL is also $$$.

Kubota is a better machine, hands down. That 333 is a large machine, for the size, and is overrated.

Check out Case TR340 as well. You should be able to get a new one of those for the $60K range.
