Nothing against the Kubota 97. I just have never heard of a single Kubota service department that was even accepted at servicing a forestry machine. Also they are Ormage which is kinda a buzz kill to me and they age quickly compared to CATs as in the paint tends to fade from sun damage and such. The CATs I run have Kubota engines in them but instead of 96 hp I’m running 110. Not a huge difference but enough to impact a purchase. From what I hear a Kubota 97 can be had for under $120k which is interesting considering my 299 cost $150k from CAT.

Kubota is cheaper than Bobcat, Don't know why those old people hate palmettos so much- they should be eating the berries to help their prostate!

Yes berry season is a big thing in Florida. Saw palmettos are harvested and the berries are used to treat prostate cancer.

@@TheTreeShop Very true, I think the government too over the industry and made people pay for the right to harvest them.
