Well, gee, let's see; how about anyone who prefers hydro over gear for starters. You can be the moderator and tell people which is best for them in that debate since you seem to be able to predict "who cares" about the advancement of hydrostatic transmission drives in compact utility tractors. My grandfather never saw the need for an automatic transmission in a car and said that if man were meant to fly he would have been born with wings. Unfortunately not everyone can adapt to technological advances or see their value. Based on your comment, you are obviously in that camp, which is your prerogative. That will serve you well in moderating the debate and telling people whether gear or hydro is best for them. You have yourself a good day now.

P.S. Most people here poke back when you poke them.

If one looks at the head lights along w/the black paint plus the grill,kinda get the feeling this model got a bad attitude...Lets get it on.

That, or it has a "uni-brow".

Yeah Island they also have a 3240, 3940 and 5740 and those are Montana models. Hey whats up Kubota guys? OK,OK don't jump on me. I was at the Moultrie show and saw the new models and they are nice. Just some friendly ribbing.

Isn't it amazing that some people love to dish it out but just can't take it. I suggest that if you love to insult people but are offended when they question you, you need to "ignore" the entire site.

Just to be clear guys, I was not trying to start a color war. Just pointing out tongue in cheek that Kubota has added a little black to it's color scheme. For those of you who don't know, Kioti was accused (correctly IMO) of copying the Kubota color scheme. However, the buckets on Kioti's are always black so you can easily distinguish them.

So, in closing, the new Grand L's do look great (with their big hydros too

)

Very sharp. The new look of kubotas iron takes a little getting used to. The first time i laid eyes on a B3030 HSDC, i thought it was big time ugly, 6 months later i owned one, go figure?

Me too. The local Kioti dealer told me that he wouldn't be too surprised if Kioti doesn't come out with a hydro in the DK65 in the near future because of the thousands of requests they have received. I was tongue in cheek as well just trading little jabs. The other fella seems to enjoy giving jabs but just can't take it when he gets it back. I was just trying to let him know that, believe it or not, I'm not the only guy on TBN who will poke back when poked. (hint, hint...I believe you'd fall squarely in that camp as well

Is this one of the models with the breaking plastic fenders? Maybe they have it fixed. Sometimes I think I ended up on everyones ignore list.

Nah, they are metal, they just bend up really bad.
