In my case my Kubota dealer is 0.6 mi away - the Deere dealer is 25 miles away. Kubota dealer had more stuff stocked. This is more of a dealer related issue than it is a part being on back order issue.

KABOOM. I deserved it I guess for not using Hagrid's special lube.

Hi All, I am new here. So long story short I am not dissatisfied with my 1025R - the dealer support however has not been what i was expecting. Long story short - I dropped off my tractor and was told all the parts are there and ready to be installed. It turns out a few of the parts are on...
