Strengths Smooth running, easy to get to everything. The power to do about anything around the farm. FEL hydraulics seem to be faster than what i'm used too.
Weaknesses Seat is a bit slick, but other than that I have no complaints.
Overall I grew up on John Deere and Case tractors. I have been looking for a new tractor for my farm. After test driving JD, Case, NH, Montana and Kubota, I had narrowed it down to Kubota and Montana. I really liked the 4 cylinder diesel instead of the 3 in other like sizes. I purchased the Montana because I could get the 5740 with cab as cheap as I could get the Kubota with just ROPS. I have about 130 hrs on my tractor. I really enjoy the Montana. You can't beat it. I teach high school agriculture and I would recommend this tractor to anyone.
