Kubota M8540HDC, L5740HSTC, BX2200, BX2660, John Deere 425&1025R, Case, Massey Ferguson, Ford
I got a call this morning they were delivering our new tractor and taking the old one. I took pictures of both, but then had to go out of town for a while, so I haven't gotten to drive it yet.

I sure can't. I have a lot of bush hogging to do and that AC sure is going to be nice while I am doing it. I finished up at our other farm Tuesday.

Thanks, I believe it will work well for us. I had them hook it to my bush hog, but didn't get any pictures.

So that is what my tractor looks like with AGs and a CAB! :thumbsup:

Sweet! Congrats!

That is one sweet tractor!! I really like the Kubota M series tractors. If I could have afforded a new one an M was at the top of the list. Enjoy it.

All shiny and new - very nice addition to your fleet of K's!

Congrats and enjoy and let us know how that A/C works for you - especially this summer when we are actually getting a summer and I am sitting here in the shade of my wide brimmed hat to keep me cool! :)

Is it my imagination or does the M look a bit beefier in the back end than the Case? And the cab seems to be a bit bigger as well?

Thanks to everyone; don't know how to do multiple quotes.

Yes, the M Series are nice tractors, but as noted $$$$ and buying it was a really hard decision to make as we certainly are not wealthy.

As to the Case it does appear the Kubota is a beefier machine and the metal hood etc. sure is nice in comparison to the fiberglass and plastic. I don't know if it is "better", but I like it. As to cab size the Case has a roomier interior that I will miss as will my sons who will drive it more than I as they had a buddy seat for a kid in the Case and it won't fit in the Kubota. The Kubota is by no means cramped, just not as big as some.

Again thanks to everyone for their advice and support.
