I am new the market looking for a tractor, and your videos have proven to be quite helpful in learning about different tractors implements, operation etc. One area i am having trouble finding information on is tractor capabilities when it comes to terrain. My use will be a lot of "in the woods" up and down trails etc. Can you go over some of the terrain constraints there are for tractors? maybe you already have a video i haven't seen. If anyone reading this has any thoughts or resources i would love to hear them. Thanks in advance for any help.

I am glad to see Kubota waited until they worked the bugs out, I bought a 175 versatile nemesis and it is just constant problems. The 175 can barely get out of its own way so in my opinion the smallest size that should be offered is the 210, I would say if Kubota was wise they would drop the 180 and only offer the 205.

Messick, The 6.7 liter Cummins ‘B’ is the engine used in Dodge Cummins pickups. It is popular for a reason, it performs and lasts. This is an industrial duty engine found in construction and other equipment. Cummins has tremendous experience with this size and larger engines. Kubota’s experience is with smaller diesel engines of the 3 and 4 cylinder variety. For most actual full time farmers, the Cummins is more desirable. Versatile is a good company making good products. The owner’s opinions I have heard were for their 4WD articulated tractors. They are rock solid and well laid out. They are particularly attractive to customers who want a modest amount of electronic automation and sensors.

Yea idk how much they've improved them but I know that historically the Cummins just wasn't even anywhere near the same ballpark as the fiat motors that replaced them. It wasn't uncommon for 8.3s to blow up in the old case combines that were running them and now case is running the 6.7 nef motor in the baby combine as well as a lot of increasingly large tractors up to and including the magnums and optums and so far I've never seen any issues. So this just looks like a huge step down to me

Alright someone has to clear this confusion up right now. There is a difference between heavy duty and light duty. And first off any of those engines yall are talking about in a race setting are only making full power for maybe 10 seconds at a time or so, and they are getting torn down after at least every season if not every single night. And it's a similar story to pickups. For the most part a Cummins that makes 370hp in a dodge is only going to be at full load for maybe 1% of its total life if even that and most other times it's just cruising around. Now the reason why these are considered a heavy duty/severe duty application is because every second that this thing is on its running a massive hyd pump and fairly substantial electric load for all those computers and tractors spend quite a few hours at full load or near full load at high rpm applications with tons of dust and contamination going everywhere around them. So it's not an apples to apples comparison and people need to quit saying this

Farms, and contiguous plots, generally don't seem big enough in Japan to warrant it, from what I have seen. Since I doubt Kubota wants to develop without very close back-and-forth with actual users, getting real big stuff out of them would likely require an entire development, engineering and production organization in a market where demand for bigger machines is greater. As for priorities, there are billions of people in places where agriculture is just starting to get mechanized. I can't imagine the ultimately stagnant markets of Europe and the US being where Kubota sees its biggest growth opportunities. Also; the US, and Europe, already have plenty of great bigger machines. The smaller end is where Western brands seem to struggle with delivering the kind of value the Asians are able to.

Versatile was a Canadian start up company in Winnipeg Manitoba and they primarily made large tractors for the large acreage farms in the Canadian wheat belt. I think that all their tractors were powered by Cummins engines and their old tractors are still in demand in the used market. This new Kubota will probably have a good price point as it is made in Canada and the Canadian dollar exchange rate is about 20% right now.

Just think that you would have easier to tell/show/sell if you had a "top notch" machine with all the "goodies". Over here we have Agco Finland. When a new Valtra, Fendt or some other pice of equipment is released, and they make a video, it's packed with extra everything. I know that Kubota makes great tractors and looking at this one (regardless of the presentation that was GREAT 👍🏽) I thought "Yes, a nice tractor. Would do the job." When I watched the videos (Agco Suomi) about the Fendt 724 Gen 6 and the Valtra T235D it was "Oh mama, who's your daddy? Let me take you home!". And this is (I think) mostly depending on the difference in the picture. - Kubota: We go from here and add on stuff. - Fendt/Valtra: All of this could be yours, can you take/handle/pay it? I am sure you know what is best for the market depending on location, just wanted to give a different perspective. Somehow I managed to make it sound like disrespect and for that I am sorry 🥺.

The quick hitch is the only one I'm kinda surprised at, I dont know what you mean by hydralic push bar. In North America very few people use front 3pt/PTO, the one exception would be people looking to run large triple mowers, but those themselves are pretty uncommon. Air brakes on tractors are nonexistent as everyone uses a big truck for hauling needs. 3pt controls on the rear fender are pretty common now, but I cant see what you would use a PTO control for. Tractors in NA are specced very differently than European tractors, mainly because we dont have tight road restrictions so it's easier to pull a wide trailed mower rather than have 3 smaller mowers.

The Cummins 5.9 was originally developed for Case to power small to mid sized construction equipment. Dodge made a deal and put it in their pickup trucks, the rest is history. The 6.7 Cummins is an upsized 5.9 to compensate for stricter emission controls without sacrificing power. Ag tractors have very expensive transmissions and final drives. All components in the drive train are matched, along with the size and weight of the tractor. Farmers need reliable horsepower and you don’t hear of many ‘turning up’ the engines. The 6.7 Cummins can be hot rodded to 4 digit horsepower numbers for short runs at the drag strip. 400 hp in a pickup towing 10,000 to 20,000 is common, but this power is intermittent for hill climbing. These folks closely monitor exhaust gas temps and have upgraded torque converters and built transmissions. Farmer’s needs are completely different. They will pull an implement all day at 90% + power levels. They need to get several thousand hours of life from their expensive equipment. 200 horsepower from a 6.7 liter diesel engine is about right for long term full power use. The 12 liter engines in tractors are set to 400-450 horsepower. Above that the 15 liter Cummins will supply 500-600 hp in a tractor or semi truck. Ag equipment that has engines turned up past these ratings have reliability problems (example current Case IH using the Fiat engines, and John Deere 13.5 liter engines turned up over 500 hp. These power ratings are not only for longevity and reliability, but also for fuel usage. Fuel usage is a major cost for the farm.

This application of the Cummins 6.7 is RIDICULOUSLY DE-RATED. These engines are designed to put out DOUBLE these power ratings. That said, TUNING FOR CUMMINS is widely available. Also, Kubota SHOULD OFFER ANOTHER POWER LEVEL: 275 ‐ 300HP.

I think going forward in the new reality is that unfortunately many well known brands are going to be forced to assemble new products from a bastardized list of random sources based on whoever can produce an reasonably close part. Personally sorry to say, but I think this model will likely be a nightmare to get parts for. I hope to be proven wrong. I just know it's been happening 8n the car world and it has caused supply issues for the ones selling the rebadged versions.
@MessicksEquip
@MessicksEquip 2 жыл бұрын
Assembly of final product from standardized parts is pretty common practice in this business. Even big companies like CNH, Deere, etc do the same. Deere.for example uses ZF for a lot of their transmissions. Some of this should actually help parts availability because you have a large machine population to support the sales over decades, rather than there being only a couple thousand of something floating around and making parts not economical to produce.

@@MessicksEquip Fair point, I hope this is the case. You're in this world every day so you have a pretty good idea of the inner workings. If you think it's going to work out I assume you're correct. I did some quick searching and learned this Canadian company is actually very large and reputable, but I must admit this was the first I'd heard of it.
