Will This Tractor Get The Job Done? Kubota LX2610

[@jjfore0921]

That sales guy really reminds me of a brother-in-law that needed a job… 😂

[@MikeSouzaProjects]

Gosh.... That was painful. There's so much to talk about when comparing an LX and an L.

[@mikewebb8456]

Some of the most relaxing times in my life were spending hours running the old tractors... slows the world down around you... good luck 👍

[@PineyGroveHomestead]

Love the orange on the property. Just got off my L3901 after 7 hours of mowing food plots today. LOVE OUR KUBOTAS!! Hydrostatic is soooooo easy, Syd. Get to work!

[@outdoororiginal4364]

We love our Kubota.. it will serve you well for many years to come. God bless. Thanks for sharing.

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

Thank you 🙏

[@lcee6592]

The LX is basically the B2650 rebadged with minor differences. The salesman didn’t seem too informative about the tractors and the difference’s between them. He should get more informed about their products, it would be beneficial for everyone. Y’all will enjoy your tractor though! It will do quite a bit of work for its size. By the way, be sure to get those rear tires filled! I totally suggest RimGuard. Makes a huge difference in stability and traction.

[@bry8890]

I bought the BX and 2 things I wish id done was Get the tiller in the original financing (Sales Rep told me they rented them....) and I wish Id gotten the B series. The L series was slightly out of my price range and the salesman didn't even tell me about the B. Either way I love my little BX

[@lcee6592]

@@bry8890 The BX series is also known as the “Swiss Army Knife” of compact tractors. They are capable of more than their size would suggest according to what I’ve seen. Don’t know how long you’ve had yours but there is a lot of BX videos on youtube showing them at work. Impressive little tractors!

[@bry8890]

@L Cee I've had mine almost a year and it is a little work horse. I have seen a lit of videos of this little beast doing some mo ster jobs.

[@jimaronson2323]

I agree about the salesman. Didn't seem to know much and was pushing the larger model big time.

[@Tonymanero1960]

My girlfriend and I (both from Maryland) just spent 2 weeks traveling the Deep South including 4 days in a few areas of Mississippi. We totally enjoyed our time in the state,..and at some point, we were probably close to your family. The more I see/read/watch what is going on in California and the West Coast I believe you made the right decision in moving because of your values. I hope you don't get too sentimental about ''Cali''because what I see on the news about that state is scary. And I am sure Mississippi doesn't encourage people to walk into Walgreens and steal $949 of merchandise and walk out without any concern.

[@CountryboyCale]

What parts of Mississippi did ya visit? I’m in south Mississippi and was just wondering. Ain’t ever heard of no body going to Mississippi

[@ronnydowdy7432]

Congrats on the new tractor. They're good and will last for years. My dad had one. Can't remember the size but it was about the same size as yours and he used it for everything. He bought it many years ago and my brother is still using it now. Dad passed away but the Kubota is still going.

[@gregfallin5001]

You will love this tractor, I've got an L4060 Kubota that I use for moving dirt and box blade work. Also have a six foot Landpride bush hog for heavy duty mowing. In the near future I'm planning on gettin the same tractor you got here but the reg LX2610 that I can put a five foot belly mower on so that I can have it for a finish mower. You'll love the Kubota Tractor I promise you. Make sure you do the required maintenance on it and always keep a grease gun handy and keep it greased up!! Take good care of your tractor and it will take care of you!!

[@scottburk4083]

Hey Mike! Congratulations on the new 🚜. Don't worry Syd it will help make all of your wants needs and desires come around a lot faster. Thanks for sharing! God Bless and have a wonderful day!

[@michaelcrouch4248]

Welcome to rural North Mississippi, best place on earth 😊🇺🇸. Our family has a Kubota that same size. It will amaze you all that you can do with it. The best toy a grown man can have. Great video 👍

[@genevanbibber4309]

Big Kubota fan here, they make top of the line equipment. BTW always better with 2 tractors maybe 3

[@smoothbore4377]

Nobody ever wishes they had a "smaller" tractor.

[@kdegraa]

The sound of a diesel tractor is really smooth and kind of liquid to me. Driving my hydrostatic Kubota tractor is peaceful and when the weather is mild, it’s relaxing.

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

And fall is gorgeous here !

[@DeepSouthHomestead]

We own two Kubotas one with grapple one without. Love them both. Your going to love that tiller.

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

Right on ! He can’t wait to really get to work with it and all the attachments! It’s going to make all the building projects so much easier.

[@da1shark]

Great setup on the Kubota. Future attachments Post hole digger - the front mounted has downward leverage vs the PTO one Wood chipper - I like the WC68

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Syd Mike and Frankie

[@ALLANROACH1]

I would sugest selling the Selectomatic they do have some issues with the transmissions , I had one and they do work nice but can have issues!

[@homeland2236]

You made a fine choice. I bought one two years ago after buying 62 acres of woods and clearings. Best purchase I made for the farm

[@noellecarden5239]

Oh, keep all three tractors. You may regret it the moment you sell it. It's a beauty.

[@kopenhagenkid]

Nice looking kabota tractor Syd Mike and Frankie

[@tracybuchanan4448]

The 4 wheel drive makes the tractor do so much more. It will pull a 5 ft disk with no problem. You will love the tiller. Only suggestion I’d give is get a quick hitch for the 3 point it’s a game changer lol

[@donaldstrishock3923]

Just get it Equiped with "Factory" lower slide links the rest of "quicky-hitcheys links" are Just fancyJUNK.

[@eddlemanfamilyfarm1944]

With older implements a quick hitch won't work they only really work with most of the new implements but there's some that still don't work

[@DavidGlunt]

It's great having different tracers with different implements so you don't have to switch stuff out so much. Just have to measure profits with expenses with maintenance and up keep. But you have a nice set up there.

[@solardiyhobbyandrevies8118]

Always good to have a backup tractor specially when you can fix yourself. Keep the fords

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

I think so too … at least the one anyway

[@johnwiggs1183]

Mike is loving life right about now and I know he wants to keep both Fords, but one of them was knock knock, knocking on heavens doors pretty hard! LOL

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

😂

[@popswrench2]

LOVE the FORDS .... IRON . L2610 NO exhaust aftertreatment huge PLUS , good options ; remote hydraulics , 3rd function for loaders also , can add cruise control on hydrostat model . RELIABLE little animals

[@popswrench2]

naw , dont sell . start making hay , you will love them extras 😅🤣

[@brentkelsay3439]

You'll get a lotta use outta that Kubota and the FEL plus the other attachments. Dad had a 1966 4000 split grille gas tractor, he pulled a 3 bottom plow and 10 ft disc with it so a 5 footer shouldn't be a problem for a 3000. The Ford 2000-3000-4000 3 cylinder tractors were manufactured from 1965 to 1975, I believe they went to a one piece grille in 1969, yours both have the split grille. The headlights in the grille are unusual in the US, that one might be a UK or European tractor. Good old tractors! You can do a lot with them and like you said they'll hold their value. Y'all have fun with the tractors and enjoy the extra animals that are gonna show up too haha!

[@erikvaldur3334]

Congratulations. Beautiful machine. If the size works for ya, keep her cool and change the oil regularly and she'll lest a long, long time. Learn her limits and respect them and you'll absolutely love that machine.

[@danopcola6223]

Mike, ya look like a natural. I would get some Pallets or build a concrete pad, for the extras. Keep them up off the wet ground, and plastic to cover any connections. Nice Buy Crew !!

Take the number on the bucket say the number is 526 multiply that by 2.2 and that is your lift capacity to the highest level.

[@geezer6378]

Wow! You guys went from tractor (less)to tractor (poor)in a heartbeat..lol. Seriously, I have a 1962 Kubota still going strong and the Ford 3000 is a tough old bird also. You’ll be operating that loader like the zero turn in no time. I know you’ve made a big investment but down the road I recommend a landscape rake either homemade or store bought. Thunder storms and ice storms down tree limbs here and after years of removing them by hand I built a landscape rake, saved a lot of backbreaking work and time. The tiller was a smart option. Remember Whitetail deer don’t like electric fences but like anything you grow in your garden. Take it slow and stay safe with you new guy toys.

[@calvinh.8882]

That's a cool "little tractor". It being 4-wheel drive, if you fill the rear tires with water you'll be surprised what it can do. It will outdo those larger Ford 2-wheel drives at many things. That Ford 3000 with dual shifter 8-speed is the best one out of the two Fords, and if I were y'all I'd keep it to do all the bush-hogging with. Those are great old tractors and it will last MANY more years.

Seems like a good choice for right now, I side with Mike on keeping the two Fords, too, for now, mainly because I like the older Fords, I can see getting rid of them, depending on what happens down the road, I do feel this is a good addition to the farm fleet.

The great thing about vintage tractors is the simplicity of them. They look wonderful and you have to learn more driving skills to operate them. Newer tractor are easier to operate but harder to service, imo. Both are awesome. I think it's wise to have both.

Welcome to Mississippi! I also live in N. Miss. in Panola County on a family farm, currently have an older 55hp Mahindra and would love to have a little bit larger Kubota with the front end loader. Always projects and grass cutting on the farm, plus I'm always doing wildlife and habitat improvements.

[@diesel4508]

That one Kubota can do the jobs of the other two, it's all you need.

[@donaldstrishock3923]

I doubt that. When the ALUMINUM hydro-slack-o-howl-o-slip-o-matic Stips OUT, and the super long "wobble loader stick" falls off ,they WILL be fireing out the "Old Fords". They should of got the L 3301-L3901-2 shuttle shift transmission version;--- nearly Bullet-profe.

[@RECKLESS1957]

I bought a L39 kubota with a loader, but here is a head up, buy you a 3 point ballast box it goes on the back to counter weight the front, I filled mine up with cement, this makes it safer when you pick up things high and heavy.

[@munsami1990]

😊😊nice

[@johnmedlin5894]

Love the older Ford tractors! Kubota makes good equipment, personally I went with a Massey Ferguson 1740M because I didn't like the Kubota tredle peddle, felt uncomfortable but to each his own. You will enjoy the investment in the equipment to maintain your property. Be safe!

[@LtColDaddy71]

Trying to keep up with your channel. Ironically, I have more time when we’re busier, because it’s a lot of time in equipment with auto steer. Those old Ford tractors are really good. Old school, easy to work on. I’d think you would have good neighbors if you needed help with anything.

the four n one buckets are awesome also

[@robertpayne2717]

Have the dealer put fluid ballast in the tires before delivery . BEET JUICE OR ANTIFREEZE IS THE PREFERED MIXTURE NOW IT USED TO BE Calcium Chloride but just a small leak will ruin the wheel with calcium

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

Yep 👍🏻 that’s exactly what they did 😉

[@JamesJ7851]

I hope it works for you. I had an L3430 at one time with the LA 723 loader, but always wished I had gone bigger. Mainly, the front end loader limitations was an issue from time to time. My next tractor will be another Kubota, but 50hp or larger.

[@fruitfarmfords8243]

In another 50 years the 8 speed ford will still be going if taken care of, hard to say where the old Kubota will be.

[@mossman7527]

Lol here we go on the tractor debate 😂, awesome to see you got to have a tractor if your doing anything with your ground you have to have one

[@CountryboyCale]

I have a old blue tractor as well. Mine is a farmtrac 435. Which looks the EXACT same as a ford 2600. And that B-bota will get the job done for discing foodplots, bush hogging fields and trails, and grading a driveway if y’all do that. I would recommend a tiller (if y’all consider one) tillers break WAY to easy to break if not used in soft ground with out rocks and small stumps. Tillers are also very slow moving. My dad can disc a the same food plot 3 times while somebody with the same width tiller and same size tractor can only do half of it. My dad has a Kubota (B-bota as we call it)MX5100 and we use it for every thing.

[@RustyCarnahan]

The LX2610 is probably my favorite Kubota model. Big enough to get shit done, still small enough to be very handy. I would definitely recommend a 3 point Quick Hitch and a hydraulic top link to make life super easy.

[@juliec.5182]

Happy New Tractor & Whatnot👍

[@piggyspiddles]

My neighbor has two tractors, one very old Ford, a big one, keeps his bush hog on it, and a newer smaller Mahindra or Kubota, not sure which. My advice would be to keep both the old Fords cause they are hard to beat. The new one can do a lot for ya, but those old Fords, well maintained, will do ya well. Not to mention their collector value later on in years. My neighbor has the bucket and a back hoe on his new one. Does a lot on his property with it....he used to keep cattle, he is in his late 70's now so has slowed down a lot, but he still gets out there tooling around with both of those tractors. He will clear an area, then run the bushhog on the old Ford where he cleared. He does that because the old Ford is tough as nails and rather large, he has had it for as long as I can remember and Ive known him since I was a young kid. And that old Ford is still reliable. Just my thoughts.

[@3MISSISSIPPI]

I agree !

[@donaldstrishock3923]

The Lx's are fancy "Beginner " units, the True L series are REAL TRACTORS for Men. Just get a L3301-2 or L3901-2 with the shuttle shift transmission; that way the "kids" & "amatures" WON'T be joy-rideing it around--so You can get the WORK DONE.

Respect to all Americans who still value the family life. Maximum respect to the kind , calm and caring father and his daughter who loves her father dearly . An advice from all my heart to all the wives in America hold on to your family . Love your husband and respect him and don't fall under pressure of the deceptive media that encourages wives to challange thier husband . Words like " I can lay down to find out the size of the pocket " " Ok .. It's a date" ... posing and acting sexy in front of the camera and other men is very disrespectful and disloyal to the relatioship.

[@charliehos3936]

I’m sure you know what you’re doing but I would Invest in roll bars for the two older models which don’t have the safety features of the new one. When you have the attachment-s connected (bush hog/disc etc.) they’re relatively safe. Never, ever try to pull someone out when they are stuck in mud. They may be old but they have the power to flip straight over backwards when you release the clutch. Don’t worry about the new one because you will be a pro in a couple of days. Be safe and happy plowing!

[@fruitfarmfords8243]

If you hook up to the swinging drawbar, under the pto, you can pull all the people out of the mud, everytime.. it's a tractor, made to pull, completely safe. Only time they become unsafe is when people hook up to the three point arms or where the top link goes out of ignorance.

I was always a fan of Ford’s wonderful tractors! Lotta history in those Fords. It’s hard to say online and not hearing it in person but the Ford engines didn’t sound right to me, but what do I know being online. The exhaust looked like the engines are tired too. I’d bring in a good mechanic. The Kubotas are sweet though.

[@scottfranklin2434]

Keep them all if possible for a year.... then keep the biggest Ford... nice Kubota... and sell the last Ford to offset some costs... get Frankie trained but remember...
