Let's bump this up and see if we can get some new people.

Since I started this thread in July '17 the M4900 now has 976 hours. +126 hours in 13 months, and +337 hours in 39 months when purchased. No issues, runs great.

BX24 now has 578 hours. +26 hours in 13 months. Bought new in 2009 we're averaging 64 hours a year. Although last years usage shows how much it sits. Still runs great, but dealing with fuel contamination issue. Put on new fuel filters a couple of times and good as new.

P.S. Brutus meet Bertha. "Big Bertha" :D

8.17.2018 - 296 Hours

That is 73 hours in just over a year.

2014 BX25D...1050 hrs...tons of little issues from a lot of hard work. Little too small for my projects but just right for payments. Engine runs strong. Fought the safety switches...seat and PTO for 500 hours and pulled them out. Two front tilt cylinder rebuilds...shattered the end of the ram...400 and 900 hrs. Bent steering brackets. Two hst fans. Pulled the fuel tank cause someone dropped in a foil seal. Broken pins on the loader arm. Most of the damage was just me using too small of a tractor for big jobs... anything other than a Kubota would be junk by now.

Dug 1800' of 6' trench for power and water through rocks and boulders. Built 2400' of driveway. Dug at least 300 to 400 large stumps...some bigger than the tractor. Clearing my 17 acres...burning slash piles. Cap and fill septic system with 400' of drain line...200 hours right there of just moving buckets of dirt. Building a 40 by 60 barn with a 8 to 9 foot cut into a slope to make a level pad. 1100 feet of 6" corrugated drain pipe to gather water off the slope above the house and move it below, plus gutter water. Skidding logs. And that's probably the short list...
1348 hrs and counting...

Bought 7/27/18 Has 4.8 hours. No problems at all. My RTV bought 4/27/15 has 180 hours, and 560 miles. No problems either. Had 1 recall done for the rear hubs last year. Love my Kubota's.

The BX 1850 was purchased in October 2016 with 289 hrs, and it now has 570 hours. So, that one is going at the rate of about 150 hours per year, maybe more.

The L210 had about 267 hours on the meter when I put it in service last December. Now it's got 332. That one's going to get around 100 hours per year.

While working the garden today mine rolled over to 300.2, problem free, only a flat tire.

Time for prepping food plots at deer lease this weekend, after that Katie will get a good bath and wax job in preparation for the coming winter.

I just went over 300 hours the other day doing some backhoe work. I've had it since 16-Dec-2014. It has done 22 regens and used 124.5 of fuel at the last fill up. That's 2.4 hours per gallon.

317.3 since April 2015, so 100-ish hours per year which seems to be pretty standard.

Need to put a couple of more hours on it mowing, but we're getting some badly needed rain so it won't be today.

My 14 year old B7500 hour meter just turned over 300 hours this week. That is probably more like 600 hours of actual use because I seldom run it at more than half throttle.

I have 935hrs on my B2650 bought in May of 2015. I use it for everything on my property. All of my mowing, rototilling, box blading, brushhogging, and snow removal. Been an awesome trouble free tractor for sure.

2012 L3800 almost 500 hrs of use with no major repairs. Broken headlight (my fault), ripped off hydraulic hose (also my fault), embedded large stick in plastic radiator guard (my fault again) basically everything minor that happened was my fault but no major engine or mechanical issues. Been a great machine.
