    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    Guys, help me out again, I am having a tire/wheel crisis: That is over 6 months sitting out in the weather (presumably). If they offer me a discount for the existing iron I may go for it, but for the same price, I think Ill wait. Thanks for that heads up.

    Confused on Kubota tire options for M7060

    Yeah I like the wider tires in the front. And I definitely agree, I am also thinking about replacement cost. It's not just a one time cost. When I need or ruin a tire in 7 years, radials will again be more, the gift that keeps on giving.

    Confused on Kubota tire options for M7060

    Oh yeah ok, I missed that #1 and #2 were 30" and #3 and #4 were 34". Must because they have the low side walls, overall diameter ends up about the same.

    Confused on Kubota tire options for M7060

    I am being steered towards #4, at a $3800 premium over the cheapest ones. At first I was like "sure whatever" but I am questioning whether its worth it. Here is my thinking: Regarding the cast wheels, sure the weight is nice, but I will probably make a concrete 3 point weight anyway. Even...

    Confused on Kubota tire options for M7060

    Hey guys, need some help understanding the 4 R1 tire options on Kubota build. I am attaching a screen shot. So what I think is: Line 1 is steel wheel with bias tires. Line 2 is same rear as #1, but a slightly different front (not sure why) and cast rear wheels Line 3 is radial R1W's with...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I just talked with them. He said that unit came in around very end of 2023. Said we could order one from the factory, lead time about 2.5 months. I do like to keep my tractor under cover and am not in any hurry, so maybe I will request the fresh one.....:unsure:

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I suppose its good to check that it is not say a 2023 model (although I highly doubt they would have one sitting for a year). I will ask the guy when he gets back to me if he knows the age. I dont care if its been at the yard for several months.

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    Ok, interesting. But if its a 2024 unit is that good enough (agree definitely a good thing to confirm)? Would you also not buy a tractor off the dealer lot and always try to get one from the factory? What is the difference between your local dealers yard and a different dealers yard as long...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I didn't see it as an option on Kubota build , maybe it's a cab only option.

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    Ok well I got a price. Ouch my bottom. M7060HD12, creep, cast rear, radials, filled, 3rd function. He said 59.4k, seemed firm. That is 1k off kubota build. Of course off of that comes 3k if cash, and hes going to get back to me on the equine discount. Was hoping for a bit lower, but I...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    On one hand i feel like the M6060/7060 is a bit dated. IMO they should all be at least 12x12. Also could have some of the transmission features some of the newer tractors have. But then again, since it has been around a long time, it is proven. I am always skeptical to buy some new design no...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I was going to get the cast centers, but unsure about the radials. Can you tell me what the radials give you? Are these wider than the base R1's? One dealer was suggesting i get the wider tires, not sure if those are the radials.

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I dont know how 1st on the M's compares to my TC45, but I found when snowblowing really deep snow it was too fast.

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    So how do you like the creep? Do you use it much? I am not sure I really need it but for $850 I figure why not. This is the tractor purchase where I dont want to run into a "I wish I had gotten...." at some point down the road. I originally was looking at a MX5600, and played the "well for...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    yup that is a negative for sure. actually nearly exactly the same $56.8K, 4wd, rops, creep. MF Has 12 speed as base. That would be the kubota with the 12 speed and creep and cast rears. No cast rears for the MF, but figure it doesnt need them. I have sat on a M7060 but not driven. i have...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    Well the primary two things are the MF weighs 2000 pounds more. Also the loader lifts 500 lbs more 6" higher, all with no pin changing. I am not exactly clear on the massey's transmission, but I think it has a button clutch on the shifter so you don't need to use the pedal. Also a gallon more...

    M7060HD12 Vs MF 4707

    I was pretty much dead set on the M7060, but then I got looking at the MF 4707. Seem like a lot more tractor for the same dollar. Here are my primary concerns if anyone wants to offer advice. 1. I've had a NH TC-45 for the last 17 years. I do mostly low RPM work, lots of loader work, lots...
