Thanks for the suggestion. I expect they are not easy to find.

Kubota can be hard to beat. We've got an M6800 with almost 2,000 hrs and have never had any trouble. It's a 68hp. Only issue I can say is it's a little bit light for the HP.

I like the AC orange. I have run a Kubota mower amd a smaller Kubota tractor with loader. Seemed a little clumsy. The tractor was too light. I might look at Kubota though.

Although Kubota's are popular for light duty work, they are a light tractor according to a friend of mine that has 2-100 hp tractors. Rear end issues when worked like they did their AC 190 XT’s. A 6060 or 6080 would be a good choice in the 70-90 hp range. They came from the factory usually 10 hp over what they were rated.

HotRod - Sorry for the delay. I lost my long term memory and forgot where I left my short term memory. Anyway the trans dipstick is 11.5". It is 12" when you include the cap.
