I have a 1240 with the 1246 MF loader. I like my MF unit. Most people purchase either green, blue or orange<br>the red machines are usually left out. To answer your question if I had to do it over again I would buy the MF. I<br>was looking at a Kubota L3010 with loader, but the dealer was a jerk. The MF was set-up right the first time it runs great from<br>day one. I have never had a farm machine, and I own blue and several green units that had a dealer prep goof-up and/or mechanical failures. <br>The MF which is made in Japan is very stout and well made, but so is Kubota. I guess it comes down to which one your more comfortable <br>with. Furthermore $16K for a 1250 and loader is an excellent price.

Just recieved a new MF 1240 with loader and ag tires. I looked at orange, blue and green but went with red. The machine is a little cheaper in direct comparison with other models. I had experience with green farm equipment and was pleased, but the compacts appear to have too much plastic/resin components and that goes for the other also. I also went red because the machine has been around for nearly a decade with only upgrade improvements. The blue ones had some growing pains as I understand and the green ones are very new. I leased a JD 6400 at our farm and had it back at the shop several times. Since then JD has come out with the 6410 series. Sort of like new car models it takes a few production years to get the bugs out. No experience with a orange machine but the MF dealer keep pushing a good looking LS3010 (also a Kubota dealer) and avoided talking about the MF compact tractors. He did'nt care if he sold a MF or not. Excuss the long wind, but look at a Massey Fergusen unit to complete your purchase survey.
