Can't decide on which one to purchase. any help? Pro/Cons

I’ll say Green simply because Deere is a huge customer of mine.

Love my 3025E, like the two foot pedal hydro static control, instead of rocker on Kubota. Will never own a gear tractor again

I have a 3038e and so far so good. I bought it with 800 hrs and seems to be holding up for me.
Father in law owns an older m6800 with bout 2000 hrs and it’s been flawless as well.
I don’t think you’ll go wrong with either purchase.

I'd buy the orange over an E series deere. The E is the budget line made in india, M and R are still made in Georgia I believe

I would purchase from whichever has the best dealer nearby. Both are decent tractors, so it boils down to which dealer has the best service and support after the sale.
With that being said, I personally would never own a Deere E series tractor.

Dealer is everything. When I was shopping the Deere dealer never called ma back do I bought Kubota. Went with the L4701 4x4 hst been a great machine I do wish it had twin pedals vs the rocker though

I have a L2800 HST 4x4 Kubota with front end loader. Love it.
Just make sure you get a 4 wheel drive and a loader in any of these small tractors. The back end can get pretty light with a loader and you will lose rear wheel traction. When the weight is on the front end that’s where you need the traction and 4 wheel drive gives you that.

I spent my whole young life with the goal to one day be able to buy a new John Deere. I ended up buying 3 in 12 years, hoping each time that the next one wouldn’t have all the nagging quality issues the previous one had. My 4th new tractor purchase was a Kubota, and I’ve been irritated ever since I realized how much better it’s made, more reliable and more fuel efficient. There’s no excuse for it to be so much better than a similarly priced Deere. If I ever buy a 5th, it will be a Kubota, but I doubt I ever will need to.

In the compact category, anybody that says John Deere do not know what they’re talking about and they just like the green color.
John Deere are lighter, have more plastic and a lower lifting capacity. I think the mahindra 1526 in the best compact tractor for your money. They are the heaviest and have a higher loader lifting capacity.

May want to consider Mahindra 1626. I got one last year and it's been great!

We've had good luck with Kubotas. Very little down time for anything other than routine or operator related issues.
No idea what you're planning on using this machine for, but a compact tractor is just that: a small tractor. That might be all you need, but keep this in mind if you think in any way that what you want to do with this machine could push its limits.
