How Hard to De-Green an MX5200?

[Mr Haney]

I saw an ad for a Kubota MX5200 with 1500 hours. The price looked nice to me, but this thing has the wonderful emissions stuff that requires high revs and can result in $$$$$$ repairs.

I would never, ever violate any type of environmental regulation, ever, even though I run my tractor about 30 hours a year and could never make a dent in the pollution problem, but just as a matter of interest, how hard is it to get rid of all that fine emissions stuff on this particular tractor?

About $4K

And if you ever need work done to it in the future you can not take it to a dealer.
Most dealers will refuse to do any work on it.

If your only using it 30 hours a year it's simply not worth the expense and trouble.
The MX5200 is a very stable emissions system and requires just about no effort to maintain.

So I don't have to worry that it's going to fail and cost me a fortune to replace?

I have a mx5200. And i put maybe 50 hrs a year on it. The emissions is not worth worrying about. You'll need to do a couple regens a year. When mine calls for a regen, I just run it up the road at full throttle for a mile and back home or I continue roto tilling and everything is complete. The mx is a good hd tractor

Highly unlikely that you'll have any issues!
