re: John Deere 3025E vs Kubota L2501

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.
