Kully, those are both awesome tractors and have a great record. There has been no problems with them at all to the best of my knowledge. Areyou looking to replace your Ford? ....

hi art I love my ford, all recondition, with 720 loader ,but I do need 4wd and live pto a must for snowblowing in adarondacks ny. moving snow with bucket and back blade not fun or fast, or putting on the chains ha ha. we also snowmobile in ny and canada great sport. I have been looking at kubota and john deere but the deere is priced to high for me. some people told me to look at the kioti but I do not know , and also I do not like where they come from but I here they are supposed to be good tractors but I am leaning towards the kubota would love to find one with low hours , but new is allways special. have a great day kully ....

What JD and Kubota tractors are you comparing? I found Kubota and JD to be close to one another price wise. You should be able to get a decent discount off off list price on either one, and be sure to compare the dealers best offers. ....

Kully, I know what you mean about being in the adirondacks! When it snows it snows!!! I normally have always said that four wheel drive is good for 20 horsepower on slippery sufaces and I don't see any thing in your lineup of attachments that needs more than the smaller L-series chassis but I would recommend the larger horsepower of them for the snow. The M-series would put you more into the same weight class as your current tractor so the four wheel drive would be a big big increase which you know. The attachents you have migh be dwarfed by the tractors ability and you migh feel a need to update or resize for a proper balance. ....
