I am looking at a used 2006 Kubota M7040 over the internet and am curious if there is some place on the net that shows the specs of a 2006 or what has changed in the model since then. I have researched the 7040 but everything i have seen is for the current production model which may or may not be what is on the 2006.

Are there any issues with the M7040 tractors? I have seen a couple of post talking about a hydralic issue but am not sure if it was an isolated case or a model problem.

Any thoughts or comments?

Thanks,

If he doesn't show up, check with Builder as he has a 7040 he bought used and uses commercially.

They are very consistant with specs from 06 to current!

Art, the newer models (not sure what year the switch was, I believe 08 or 09) are heavier than the first ones. I want to say around 800 lbs heavier. Also slight hp gains. You are right, mostly the same though.

I doubt that the new M7040 is 800 lbs heavier than the 2006 model, but I could be wrong. Do you know what they changed to add 800 lbs? I believe that Kubota did add a turbo to the newer models, primarily to meet emissions requirements.

The kubota with a cab m6040 went from 4650 to 5450lbs. I dont know about the 7040.

HRCARVER,

I contacted Kubota HQ and they sent me the spec sheet for the 2006 M Series.

Thanks, the weights are different than I thought.

Who did you contact? I'd like to know the weight with the cab.
