John Deere vs Kubota

I am looking at tractors about 55-75 HP. I was wanting feedback on whether I should go with Deere or Kubota and why.

Where are you located? I've got a good friend that sells
Kubotas for a living. He loves to make sells.

Not real sure yet. Trying to decide whether the cab is worth it.

There's a reason why Kubota is the number 1 selling large property owner tractor. JD people go to meetings and wish they were Kubota in that class.
With that said- if you have a good Case IH dealer around, go and check out a 75C Farmall. Was designed to kick Kubota's arse and they are priced competitively.

I don't even know you anymore
Unless the new Deeres suck, I hate Kubota.

What about service. I hear Kubota lacks in service.

Compare the size of the three point hitch components on the two tractors. Ask the orange guys about PTO torque rise and engine pull down and economy PTO operation. Most imprtantly sit on and drive both of them if you do that you'll buy Deere. Also this may surprise you but look at maintenance schedule and ask for parts pricing on the items listed on that maintenance schedule, anything you save buying orange will be eaten up quickly. Buy the tractor 4wd and with a loader whether you think you need it or not, You will be happy you did in performance and if you ever decide to sell it/ trade it.

This for sure. I like both, but support for them around me sucks.
