I must brag and tell you that Kubota equipment is hard to beat. I’ve been around them all, and I just cannot say enough good about Kubota. Of course there are many other equipment choices, but Kubota is mine.
My Kubota 75-2 track loader is the handiest piece of equipment I have. It will handle the really heavy task, and it’s way easier to see what’s in front of you than the cab loader tractor is. and like the M9960 tractor shown below, this 75-2 is rough riding, but the air ride seat helps smooth things out a little bit.
Another good thing is the color. I love orange and black together…lol. Everyone has their own preferences, and many that love the ugly green will tell you that the orange ones are no good. Who cares what others think…right? I couldn’t care less what others think, it’s my stuff, so my opinion is all that matters.
My Kubota M9960 tractor has fluid filled tires, which is nice for ballast, but it sure makes it ride rough. The fluid ballast is really helpful when handling large logs and other heavy things on the front. However, the air ride seat does help smooth out the ride.
The Landpride 12’ batwing mower I bought for my smaller Kubota M7060 tractor, is now too small for the M9960, but it works great. Kubota also owns Landpride, and this mower is orange and black as well.
When you have a lot of grass to mow, there is nothing like a big zero turn mower. My older Scag was great but lots of hours and only had the 61” deck, so I bought a new…yep, you guessed it, a Kubota…haha. This Kubota 25hp diesel zero turn with 72” deck is a beast, and with the air seat, it’s pretty darn smooth.
So yes, as you can see, I do like Kubota. They stand behind their equipment and parts are readily available, if needed. We also have Kubota dealers close by…within 15 miles in 2 directions, which is very nice and handy. They also carry Stihl chain saws and stuff that I also use. Oh, and the Stihl saws and cases are also orange.
I’ve found that opinions are like rear ends, everyone has one, so stop worrying about what someone thinks about you and your choices and go live your life.
Don’t forget, we are on Facebook too…Either MikePilcherCustoms, or PinOaksFarm at Facebook.
Always do your best,
-Mike Pilcher
