Drive Green: John Deere 4M Series vs. Kubota MX Compact Utility Tractors

[@clintmcc507]

It's amazing how far jd has to stretch to find anything worth talking about. It's pretty sad they can't even come close to competing with Kubota

[@donedoneit1355]

I've owned both in a landscaping business....went back to the JD. Damn "Kabrokeya" spent more time in the shop than on the job.

Do John Deere tractors only drive forward? If they ever go in reverse the steering components will be exposed. Only 4 lube points on the Deere with so many moving parts, is Deere implying this is due to the use of sealed components? I'd rather have grease zerts to lube those components. All 3 Kubota MX models offer an HST transmission yet you implied there was only a gear transmissions option with Deere's being better. People doing a lot of loader work likely aren't buying a tractor with gears but instead with a HST. Also, the Deere driver used his right hand on the loader and his left hand for the PowrReverser - this was petty on your part.

John Deere must be worried doing this video

Yeah they can't do a fair comparison. I'd like to see them do a fair comparison to a Massey Ferguson 2800m series to their 4r series they would be so embarrassed but there's a reason they don't ever compare but to Kubota and only a couple models

Why does everyone talk about the hood on these tractors being plastic or steel ? When we work the tractor no one is thinking about the dumb ass hood.

[@goodboyringo9716]

This video is comparing a 4 speed stick to a Hydro trans, not fair at all . Kubota has a Hydro also . John Deere has the tie rod behind and lower than the front axle with no protection but this video is claiming Kubota has no protection. This Kubota 's front loader can be easily removed but not on the M john Deere . Kubota is way cheaper !!

Lube points it is alot better to have more than less the steering components are protected bye metal the hood is so much better that jd and that treadle peddle ask anyone they will say it's better Kubota engines are known to last forever the mx is also close to 15 k less and the maintenance less for the jd just means it's going to wear faster for less maintenance

[@Bigdaddyluv68]

This video explains a lot. Obviously Deere is better.

[@coltonpoulter7936]

No just shows that jd dosent do a fair comparison with machines Kubota has a better hst 100% the hood is better the maintenance is better the lube points it's better to have more than less
