Strengths Just about everything. Enough power to do anything I've thrown at it, which includes heavy boxblade work, stockpiling rocky soil with the loader, and removing large stumps with the backhoe. The FWD comes in handy for giving extra traction when pulling the boxblade or stacking brush. Just make sure you get Ag tires, and get them filled! I considered industrials and am very glad I did not get them. The loader has ample strength and is very fast. The backhoe can be added/removed in 5 minutes, as long as you have a nice concrete pad to put it on. (Adding/removing the 3-pt hitch is much trickier) The tractor is quite maneuverable, and the gears have a wide range of speeds for different ap

Weaknesses A toolbox would be nice, but so would a million bucks and Erin Andrews. :) Can't have it all.

Overall Zero complaints. Best value out there, bar none.

Strengths I purchased this tractor to use as a primary utility tractor on our farm. I also purchased a 60” Woods mower with this tractor to mow most of my yard as well as the pastures and around the barn. I have had the tractor for a month and I have mowed with the finish mower, mowed with a 5” brush cutter, Used a 12” post auger, Lifted 800lbs or more with a 3pt boom, Hauled 28” x 10’ logs out of the woods, raked hay and some other miscellaneous chores on the farm. I did not purchase the FEL at this time, but I plan to install one sometime next year. I had looked at several other brands and I was actually sold on a different tractor brand until I was told about Kubota’s reliability and efficiency

Weaknesses No Remotes, no Toolbox

Overall I would rate this tractor a 9.5 out of 10. I have already recommended this unit to several other friends who have been looking for a CUT a little larger than the typical B series and did not want all the bells and whistles of the Grand series.
