- Kubota M7-171, M5-111, SVL75-2, RTV900XT & GR2120; CaseIH 1680 combine
Serial number plate on my M7-171 loader. Tractor was built in France, mated with loader built in Georgia. Loaders installed on M7s sold in Europe are quite possibly sourced in Europe. Plant in France I worked at for 3 years was about an hour from the Kubota factory. We built machines identical to those same models built in USA. Components like engines, hydraulics, gearboxes were common sourced. Fabricated parts were made in country. Not cost effective to transport with local fabricators are available.
