Thanks for your post Fordtech86. Your comments are always informative and something for me to remember and keep in mind if I get another chance at a Kubota. I probably won't be visiting this forum again now for awhile. If I find another Kubota I will certainly be back. I have really enjoyed my...

No, I did not go to the auction. So in the end I did not learn any more than before. As I mentioned in my previous post (#22) unfortunately I did not get the tractor. The winning bid was $3,250. Thanks for your interest but it is all a moot point now. I did enjoy the discussion with all of you...

Wow, what a wonderful response. Thank you all for the time, effort and thought that you each put into your posts. You each brought up excellent points. I gained volumes from each one and feel much more comfortable now about how much importance I should be placing on the hour meter reading. It...

Thank you guys for your replies. Sorry about the photo. I had not intended to post a photo of the meter originally. I did not word my post as well as I should have and it was misleading. I should have been clearer regarding my question to the forum. First, I have absolutely no experience...

Hello, I am a new member and possible first time Kubota owner. I am looking at a 1978 B7100D that is up for auction. The the photo of the hour meter is difficult to read accurately because the numbers are faded from age. At first glance the hours appear to be 0742.3 but the 0 is the most...
