I’M THINKING ABOUT SELLING MY KUBOTA. KUBOTA M4D-071 REVIEW

We bought the Deluxe version of the M4-071 from Kubota over a year ago. While we did have a John Deere 5115 for a while, the 4 Series from John Deere was really as big of a tractor as we used on a regular basis. So how has this Kubota been? We'll tell you our favorite parts and least favorite parts, and let you know if we plan to keep it.

[@Sparkeee1978]

I would ditch the John Deere, and keep the Kubota.

[@mtgraingrower]

I use my 4720 for so many things, mowing, snow plowing with an 8' snow pusher, snow blowing with a 3 point blower, grading with a 9' blade, all kinds of front loader work including a pallet fork. I also run farm implements like grain bag unloaders and grain augers. It would be nice to have a tractor that fits in between the 4720 and my 320 horse 8320R, but for most of my light work it is great. A bigger fuel tank would be nice.

[@michaelmactavish4445]

[@berthongo8531]

It's your choice. Which do you like more? I've never been on either one so I have no opinion. I have a 1025R but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like another make. It was more of an impulse buy when my wife gave the nod to purchase a tractor. John Deere just seemed like the way to go but knowing what I know now, I'd probably look more closely at the Kubota since that's the only other choice near me. Coke-Pepsi. Chevy-Ford. Mary Ann-Ginger. Mary Ann!

[@m.h4664]

I can't wait to see what all you do. I don't blame you for keeping it .seems like that it is a good fit for you at this time Hope you have a blessed week

[@Sethxian]

I was able to upgrade to an air ride seat when I purchased my M4 in 2022. One thing I'd note is the blue remote has a float mode, so when you're running something like a batwing mower it can float the terrain without stressing the mower hydraulics out. The green remote will detent in each direction until it gets resistance, I'm not sure if that would allow for continuous flow or not.

[@rjsfarm2534]

I just ordered one (yet to arrive) and was able to upgrade to an air ride seat. Also, it already has R14 tires which look to be great for yard work. The fuel tank holds 23.8 gallons which should keep you moving for awhile. In addition to feeding hay bales and property maintenance, I’m planning to use for a small hay operation. I really like the 511 grill guard. 😊

[@andybonneau9209]

I would have been surprised if you had a bad review of a Kubota. They are well made and pretty reliable, in my experience.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Check out my BX review 😂

[@idaho_7407]

Good review: We just downsized to one piece of equipment yet wanted to keep using the many versatile attachments on hand. Guess everything is a compromise to a point, yet for us a cabbed MX6000 fit the bill. Having had a lifetime of tractors and experience, this one keeps us smiling. Keep up the good work, know you're appreciated.

[@Sparkeee1978]

Creeper gear on my Kioti RX7320 really helps for tight quarters use with the power shuttle gear. An HST would be nice, but the hook-up with gear is just sooo solid. I am happy with my machine. I will probably get a smaller 40hp hst open station for my wifes garden use when the big cab utility machine is paid off.

[@ABMFARM]

Good Video and I think you are making a good decision with hanging on to the Kubota, I understand the feeling you are getting in reference to the quality aspect of the tractor....I went through 5 different Utility tractors in 4 years before I Bought my Kubota. after 3 Years now and still making it mine so to say... I still feel It's the best choice out there.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Agreed, quality feel all around

[@Wanartith]

For the lifting capacity, you have 3 options on this tractor. If you look on the main frame by the door, the lift cylinder has 2 pin option. If you pin it in the lower position, you get less lift height, but more capacity. Just the opposite in the upper pin hole.

[@99blkbmwm3]

Nice summary ! I also own a utility tractor (It's Blue) and can relate to the limitations you mentioned but it can be very useful for small farm uses. Wondering if you have tried to use your HD stump bucket with this tractor ? Wondering how the stump bucket would be to use with the power reverser transmission rather than a hydrostat ?

[@stump-bossBIll]

You forgot to mention it was nice to have something available with some heft to pull out your stuck track loader 🤣😆or whatever else might get stuck.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, good call!

[@stump-bossBIll]

@@GoodWorksTractors Was reading some comments here, I know it's human nature, but it still amazes me how many people are addicted to color or name or brand versus actual functionality for the value. SO....maybe the real answer.... A TRACTOR PULL...winner stays loser goes bye bye.....hahahahha, JD is already handicapped by tire type and likely HP to the dives (gears vs hydraulics) and weight....so while the answer seems like a foregone conclusion, maybe for a FUN and likely BIG VIEWS video, make it a Green V ORange RUMBLE!!!!!

as always, a good breakdown of the good, the bad and the ugly. appreciate your commentaries.

Glad you are going to keep your Kubota. Sorry to hear about all the issues but little by little you will get it were you want it. Thanks for the video 😁👍🚜💨🍳

[@MyClutteredGarage]

Nicely done, Courtney. That’s a handy machine for some of those bigger jobs.

[@scottyb6765]

I bought a like new MX5200 last fall. It was 4 yrs 150 hrs old. It's a great machine in between what you had and what you got. Enjoyed the video

[@kylerayk]

Good video Courtney! I have a "working" yard so the R1 tires are not a major concern but I'm careful about avoiding sharp turns and 4wd on the lawn as it will tear up some turf. In the field though, the R1's can't be beat...gotta have them hands down. You might look into the Kubota Shockless Ride accumulator for the loader. I really love mine!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Hmmm, I like the sound of that accumulator. Will have to look that up!

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Such a nice machine but interesting the bigger tractors don't have HST. When I was a kid, our big combine was hydro. Don't think I see myself with anything but hydro!!!

[@inspectr1949]

Great following you as some day I hope to upgrade soon from my modified shuttle shift Cub Cadet 7360SS headed cab version I've had for 22 years, like you say its all about ones needs as for me with 20 acres, a saw mill and 1/4 mile dirt road to maintain, lots of big boulders in the ground in 4 seasons. All I know is need more HP and loader lift capacity, at 74 it will be my last tractor to enjoy doing what I like most.

[@willieorpurt6317]

Hey Corey good morning. I agree with what you said. Get what you want(brand) with as much as you can(standard equipment) to start with that fits your size property. And then equip it with the attachments that makes since for you and property. I found exactly what I wanted(older Ford 1520 4x4) yes on purpose with the quick attach backhoe but pinned on loader, like you have always said up front so it don't cost you a bundle later. Done this before I knew you and channel. Then first attachment I got was a post hole digger. Because I was putting up fence. Then I got a 3 point Boom Pole. To move engines around. Then I got with you the Speeco quick hitch. Common everyone needs one these. Now when I can I will get the SSQA assembly to convert my bucket to quick attach. Got the skill and tools to do that. As far as tires. Mine came with the Ag tires and I knew it would tear up my yard, so I found another whole set of factory Turf tires and rims and put on. Still have the Ag tires on the rims to just swap out when needed. With Backhoe on I can lift all tires off the ground to change. And of course I had to get some Goodworkstractor swag. Future upgrades: Summit hydraulics front and rear. And a whole lot more attachments going threw you that you have or using the Goodworkstractor discount where needed. Why? Because of everything you said at the end of this video. Side note: Have you heard of or going to the Ft Wayne tractor SHOw at the Ft Wayne Memorial Colasium. It's starts today, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. They do have the smaller tractors and attachments. Might be good for you to go and and collaborate with company's to work with. Hey camera man Chris: You always do a great! job. O.k. I went on probably WAY to much here. Maybe it was all the coffee in the Goodworkstractor mug. Lol!

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Haha, all good info! I don't make it to many tractor shows, but will be attending the Louisville show in February.

[@chrishunt5291]

Good review, I have the 1723e and mirrors were not an option. So I got golfcart mirrors and 2 round magnets, and they hold on good.

[@henrymorgan3982]

Kubota is like Toyota. Not over the top, but always there when you need it most.

[@earlyriser8998]

I have the MX6000 and agree with everything you say. I am a tractor newbie and the comfort of the cab and the hydrostatic treadle pedal allows me to maintain my mile long, old, driveway, mow, and grade drainage. We have bought an air ride seat (aftermarket) which only requires a elec jumper kit which Kubota provides.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

MX6000 is a good one too Riser!

[@carl6153]

I’d keep the Kubota. My Aunt and Uncle have been dealing Kubota for many many years. The Japanese engineers used to come and see my dad every year for his information about how the designs were working out. Dad was a very capable mechanic who was very impressed by how polite the Japanese people were. Even the fact that most of them had a good bit of problems with our version of English, didn’t keep them from bonding over the mechanics of ease of operation and maintenance. During the summer heat anything that had dad in the shade and out of the hayfield was a blessing. Those early tractors were extremely reliable but a son of a biscuit to work on. Everything was so much closer together than the Case, New Holland, and International tractors that everyone was used to.

[@carterblann2290]

Our small m4 is fully loaded over 800 Hours now. It’s great. It came with a air ride seat it fantastic and it’s nice. Got a lot of power for it size.

[@540isilver]

i have a mx6000 and i love it but i sorta wish i got the m4 with the buddy seat so i could one of the kids with me easier.

[@Bigtoolrack]

Love that tractor I may need to Upgrade!! Great video!

[@benjaminwilley3578]

Loader mounted log splitter sounds good.

[@jimmcknight3021]

The Grand L series also gas the fuel cap on the floor of the cab, which is a lot easier to handle than a fender or the hood of the engine. The only thing that I did like our Grand L was that R14 tires were available. We had to settle for R4 tires. I like them better than the tractor tires as they don't tear up the ground as much, and they are wider. With Rim Guard in them, each R4 tire has 503 pounds of ballast. Very important when lifting a hay bale!

[@homesculptor]

Do you think with a quick hitch with tilt hydraulics slight tilt would be possible with a box grader?

[@On_The_Farm]

Interesting. My tractor comes with the detent valve for the rear remotes as standard. The self return valve can be added.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Yeah, might add in the future

[@simonthebroken9691]

What is your opinion on the Kubota bx1880? I just bought one a couple months ago and I absolutely love it it does everything I need it to. If you don’t mind me asking why did you say the bx was junk lol. Keep up the good work I absolutely love your videos.

[@bradmeacham6982]

FYI... Kubota's online configurator for the M4D-071HDC12 (deluxe) does offer an air ride seat upgrade.

How do you add the weight to your rear tires you were talking about?

[@roynajecki1100]

I'm interested in knowing what tasks you need one of your larger tractors for that you can't do with the Summit TX25H. BTW - how many utility tractors do you own? I'm guessing it is more than the number of chairs in my dining room.

[@davidwhipple3356]

May I ask what your diesel storage/container is in this video? I need one for the shop

[@kearneywalters6907]

Personally I would hang on to the M4. I just took delivery of an M6060 and could not be happier. It had 68 hours on it and had been traded into a JD dealership. The sales manager had some great incentives to go with a JD but I have been running orange equipment since the 80's. It came with two rear remotes and two front remotes. You just briefly mention the hydraulic top link and I think that is a great improvement. I mainly do grader work and installation of crushed limestone driveways where I need to adjust cut angle frequently on my box blade and the hydraulic top link would be a huge time saver. Again, thanks for all of the great info.

[@stevenshook3348]

Venting low is simply smart design. Upper cab vents result in substantial heat/cooling loss on very cold/hot days.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Maybe so, haven't ever had that issue with my Deere's. Perhaps other models.

[@davidmartin7660]

A tractor is really a niche fit item, including the subcompact series tractors. both green and orange are both pretty good quality and each has its shortcomings. The one major issue I have with Deere is the proprietary quick attach. It simply isn’t popular in the aftermarket manufacturing field where you too have found some fantastic pieces of equipment. Just consider how much less business you would have if you didn’t handle SSQA items. Sure green can be adapted, but ask yourself who adapts to the JDQA? I am not sure anyone even manufactures such an adapter. That would leave you as just another green dealer competing with other green dealers. Glad to see you reconsiders selling. Make it what you want.

[@michaelmactavish4445]

accully pretty easy to convert a 3 point hitch post hole digger into loader mount all is need is hydrulic gear box and hoses and frame that makes a bale spear and add gear box onto the bale spear frame and you have a loader mount post hol digger wich pretty easy project ive done it on a m8540

There's only one thing that I may have done differently, and that's a cab. That said, 1025Rs with cabs are like hen's teeth on the used market, and when they do come up, you're gonna pay. I got a great deal on the package I bought, and to be perfectly fair, I'd have likely done some significant damage to the cab in the process of clearing my land. The one thing I should have done, as soon as I bought Joan, is get her fitted with R1s, or maybe try to stuff some R2s under her fenders. Our icky sticky sandy clay makes a joke of traction.

Instead of the hammer to lock down the hydraulics, I’d try out something like some 90 degree locking pliers. Still not optimal, but might be a bit less clunky. 🙂

I’ve always been a New Holland & Case guy and own 10ea tractors from 150hp down to 33hp hydros. Then I tried/tested a AGCO/ Massey Ferguson 5711 Dyna4 110hp machine. Simply put I was overwhelmed with the quality and feature rich machine that basically has everything standard on it…. The 16 x 16 full true power shift transmission is the smoothest one I’ve ever operated in my 45 years of farming & equipment operation. The 4707 Massey with the Dyna 2 transmission is a 24 x 24 speed and can be clutched with a button on the shifter. Throw in brake to neutral, air ride seat, three SCVs and shock dampening for the loader & three point hitch loads and you find out quickly that AGCO is the leader these days in quality, service, standard features included and pricing which is between CNH & Deere. Of all my machines the Massey is my favorite tractor hands down of all the equipment I own……. Courtney really does need to give a 4707 Dyna2 tractor a test drive.

[@northernexplorer1709]

I just sold my 2021 M7060 with 270 hours on it. The hydraulics were extremely slow, loader was one-way/sloppy and the build quality over the last few years has gone down the toilet. Im tired of Kubota switching and getting rid of models/options and then charging me insane money for service parts. Ive bought multiple new Kubota products and every time i buy one they get worse.

[@chadbinette3201]

The Kubota m-series is a whole nother level. To me it's a farm tractor, pulling a hay bailor, lifting big round bails and so on. I think they also have a mx series that is in-between the m-series and the l-series. It's bigger than a l6060 in weight and lifting capacity and I believe the mx can come with hydrostatic.

[@KSN2019]

Have you looked at the lifting specs? You won’t be lifting wet bales with this tractor

[@Cummins6720]

I work for kubota. We have one on our lot. I own a kioti rx7320. Pretty much comparable machine . The kioti has 2 more hp is all . And cost is 15% less. But same features. One thing kioti doesnt offer is a big bucket. Unlike kubota . Which is a major turn on for trading mine in for the kubota m4-071. We have all the rear remotes and third functions and hydro quick attach couplar kits in stock . I have yet to try one. But if i get to build my own at dealer cost for my own land. I sure will if the numbers come back good for resale on the kioti rx7320

[@gjm5591]

Well Courtney I have disagree with your overall assessment of the BX as being junk. I’ll agree with you that Kubota’s fuel filter solution is engineered terrible. Their grille guard is lacking quality. I have had too make after market updates which when completed would make it a great subcompact. The loader has enabled me to tackle a number of jobs and complete that otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to do on my own. I should mention that I own a Bx2380 and the engine is a little power house. I blow snow with it in the winter using a 60” rear snow blower & it handles it no problem. The unfortunate downside is the treadle pedal. It was difficult for me to get used too but now I have done a pretty good job of mastering it.

Fine as a stand alone, just not anywhere near as good as the 1025r :)

[@gjm5591]

@@GoodWorksTractors Yes I have to come clean, this fall I was going to trade it off for J.D. 1025 R with a Backhoe. I must say John Deere builds things right out of the gate using craftsmanship & common sense. It’s like the Engineers must own one of these!!! 😎😂

[@Lackieestatesfarm]

@@GoodWorksTractors I know the bx and the 1025 are the same class of tractor but I think we could all benefit from seeing the kubota lineup next to the John Deere lineup. The 1 series will out perform the bx in almost every metric, but it’s a physically much bigger machine. The 1 series sits physically between a bx and a b in size but gets out up against a bx. It would likely not out perform a B. Does that make sense?

[@smanjik]

A few years ago you liked the BX.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Yeah, opinions often change with time and experience

[@jerrydikerson7823]

I have a M7040 and know friends with M7060's. I don't understand why the M4-071 has the same engine but has 4 to 5 less pto hp. I was told by a dealer I would be disappointed with the power of I was use to a 7040 or 7060.

How do you recommend selling a brand new tractor?

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Brand new tractors are sold from dealers. If you have a tractor you bought recently and want to sell, then that is a like new tractor and I'd sell it on Facebook Marketplace, Craiglist, TractorHouse, or similar.

[@arlisspropertyservicesllc5943]

Having watched your channel the past several years, I would keep the Kubota, since its always there when your JD takes a month off in the shop. 😉

[@GoodWorksTractors]

Ha! Hard to argue 😂

What's with the slight on BX's? They do a ton of work for their size, very reliable.

@@GoodWorksTractors Everyone has the right to their own opinion.

[@lcee6592]

I’m quite sure the tens of thousands of Kubota BX owners disagree with your assessment of their tractors being junk. The reality is, the 10 series John Deere is more in line with the Kubota B 2601 series. The BX series is more in its own size class regardless of how they are labeled. (I don’t know if there are other brands with models as small as the BX.) However, you might want to search KZbin for videos of BX tractors and the amazing amount of work they do for such a small platform. I believe most equipment rental companies that offer small compact tractors for rent, have the BX series. The rental companies need reliable tough equipment, you know, because people are easy on rentals…

[@TheMonkdad]

I’d keep it too. Wish I had a cab but too many low branches and a short garage door.

@Good Works Tractors any experience with the l6060 hydro? I looked at it too. I really want to use a 8ft 3 point hitch brush mower

[@BradMyers]

If I had the cash, the M4 would be one that I would pick up. It seems to be a nice size with good capability that would work well on our 80 acres. Yet, I will be thankful for what I have (L3560HSTC) and work with it till the bank account and economy both recover.

[@GoodWorksTractors]

L3560 is a real nice machine though, I'd be happy with it!

[@bradw3313]

Good summary…I have a MX open station with basic gear drive which fit my needs. Biggest need was cost but don’t mind the old style clutch. I personally couldn’t stand the hydro whine. I will say on the MX they call it a shuttle, but whoever marketed that hasn’t operated a true shuttle system…or…they lied. I knew that going in as dealer told me it’s more of a shuffle than shuttle. He explained you shuffle those feet to the clutch, come to a stop and shift into reverse. Totally different from the true shuttle as the M model.

Be wary once they get upto 3500 hours, can have gearbox issues.

When I went to buy my tractor I brought my dear, sweet wife with me…. The dealer had a Kubota l series, a John Deere 970 and a smaller Massey. The Massey was smaller than I wanted, the Kubota had been ridden hard and put away wet, the JD was fairly low hours and in surprising good shape and would fill my needs. My wife still hasn’t forgiven me for buying the JD… why you may ask… she liked the RED ONE! For a peaceful life, tractor color is important! Lol By the way, your videos are great.

That would be so much overkill for 99% of the use cases I have. That said, if I had a bunch of extra cash on hand I would buy it. Really for you I would probably say sell it. You have other equipment for work and home. Why keep it?

Those hydrostatic transmission tractors are just absolute junk to me. You can't do anything with them. I like a good gear driven transmission with a good clutch. Whether power reverser or manual shift. Just what I grew up with. I have used the hydros from time to time. Not the machine that a gear boxed tractor is.
