Kubota MX6000 - 175 Hour Review

Im doing a review on my MX6000 after 175 hours of use. I'll tell you my likes and dislikes during my ownership of this machine. Please leave a comment or question below.

Mr.Tom have the Mx5200 (@54hp?) Gear-drive shuttle shift 8×8 with the BH92 backhoe & same tires. With 7years & 1200hours of Totally Flawless profomance... & ZERO PROBLEMS. Just wish l would of let them "Have their tool box" & saved the 45cents on the Purchase Price of 41,580.°°$. Did "jack-up" both of the "Buck-board" seats( for more visibility & clearance's). Also "Supped-up" the slooowww hydraulic's just by changing some hoses & FITTINGS by 40%!!!( pressure & lifting profomance stayed the same).Also "Swaped-out" the Origional HD,with cutting edge - Heavy-Blast-Furnass- low volume- half SCOUP loading- Loader Bucket with a "Miricale-wonder- does Everything-BETTER -78" Skid-steer Loader bucket. These are "Good-Tractors"; but it is like an "old-ford" compaired to my "other" Massey-Ferguson 1736m power-shuttle-CADILAC. Thank you Sir for the Excelent vidio and happy safe tractoring. Best wishes with all your endeavours.

Great video. Just got a 5400

Can't tell the dent. I just bought the L4802, excited to get started working it.

I have same tractor and box blade and love it. The larger box blade on the MX is a must at least for me. I do a lot of work in the woods lifting, pulling and pushing trees and the added weight of box blade helps. I used to own a B3030 - also a great tractor for what I used it for but needed something bigger. My biggest surprise regarding the MX6000 vs B3030 was the fuel consumption. My MX does not sip diesel, I know its a bigger tractor / engine / weight, but I quickly went to Vevor 65-gallon fuel storage with pump. Standing on wheels pouring from 5-gallon containers was ridiculous.

Thanks for posting and doing the review, I'm looking at buying this tractor and it helps to have a real review.

[@barney1941]

they build the perfect tractor then put loader control up high and the treddle pedal. that was the two things that made me buy a different brand.. all in all that is one fine machine. i play with logs with a fransgard 950 log grapple and open station to i dint wreck cab

Great video! I’ve got an L3301 from the dealership, had it 3 years. These tractors look fairly similar, I’ll have to look into it and see the differences. Anyway I’m gonna hit the subscribe button too! Edit: your tractor is the next size up from the one I’ve got, looks similar but must be the video!

[@js4455dl]

2501 3301 3901 4701 are all L series the mx are 5400 and 6000 series

In Australia Kubota doesn’t sell the MX6000. They sell the MX5200. I have one and it looks to be very similar to the MX6000. The loader is lower rated than the loader on this tractor but again they look to be very similar. I don’t think these tractors are well suited to clearing land. They are designed more for doing work in cleared land. They are a bit too fragile to be a land clearing machine. They can do the job but it has to be taken slowly and carefully, otherwise something might snap, bend or break. We like our MX5200. It’s strong, reliable and capable.

[@gearheadtom8646]

I agree. If you have to clear out a large area then some type of heavy equipment will work best.

[@barney1941]

i have the same size tractor. 3 $200-250 adds well worth it are cutting edge for bucket. rear hydraulic top link and pats easy change

[@donaldstrishock3923]

What? It HAS Extendable lower link-ends....they ARE THE BEST.; "slapping" something else on is just "Junking it Up". I have thisTractor( MX5200 TLB) also 7years & 1200hours worth of near ZERO problems.

[@stevetrimble5889]

Can you give the seller and part number of the 5 11 tie downs?

[@TropicalDoc]

Excellent review, thank you! I am in the process of purchasing this tractor, do you regret not getting the Ag tires? My sales person recommends them but I am also planning on doing some finish mowing so the Ag may be too aggressive for me, what are your thoughts?

[@gearheadtom8646]

These new tractors have 4wd so I do not regret the tires I have on it now. I wanted to keep the fat front tire and if you use the AG it will be a skinny front tire. The only other tire that has my interest is the Goodyear R14t. They are like the AG tire but less aggressive.

You need katic insurance through kubota

[@richardgerman9351]

What is the total length of your tractor setup from FEL tip to farthest end of your box blade?

[@gearheadtom8646]

19ft

[@richardgerman9351]

Hey Tom what is the total length of the tractor with FEL and the box blade..tip to rear of box blade?

[@gearheadtom8646]

I had a 20' car hauler trailer and it barley fit on the trailer. I had to roll the bucket up to get it to fit. I'm thinking around 22' ft but if you need an exact measurement I'll try to get one for you. If you need to know the length for a trailer then I would recommend a 25' trailer.

[@richardgerman9351]

Small tractors cost nearly as much as bigger ones.

[@cliffrose9492]

How is it digging dirt?

[@gearheadtom8646]

It's decent at digging virgin ground but it's no skid steer.
