I plan to purchase my first tractor very soon. Based on my research, I have narrowed my choices down to the John Deere 5320 (with syncshuttle transmission) or Kubota M6800 (with hydraulic clutchless shuttle shift), both are four wheel drive models. I plan to have a 4-1 bucket and medium heavy duty bush hog. Would appreciate feedback or suggestions, especially about reliablity and longevity.

I would suggest consider the power reverser on the deere. That would be a closer comparison to the shuttle shift kubota. It is also a better choice for loader work than the synch-shuttle. Just my opinion. ....

I agree with jdgreen. Both are great tractors. I don't think you will go wrong with either. I suggest you look at, compare, and demo the two so as to get a first hand review of the various features and ergonomics and go with the machine that suits you best. ....
