In Reply to: Re: JD 4100 vs. BX2200 posted by Pat on Wednesday, October 17, 2001:
If you are considering the tractors with Hydro Trans then the JD will turn much tighter w/brakes than the Kubota. The JD lets you brake independently on the LEFT side while powering forward on the right. This is not offered by any other compact and is worth considering if you're going to be working in tight quarters.
: : : I am in the market for a compact tractor and have narrowed my choices down to the 4100 or Kubota BX2200. Any experiences with the 4100? Is it worth the extra $$?
: : The Kubota is probably more bang for the buck. People on other post really love there Kubota's. Unless your a diehard JD fan the Bx might be worth looking at.
: You might also look at the cooling capacity of the Kubota vs a JD. The Kubota's is less. I bought a 455 JD over the Kubota mainly because I have closer access to service and parts. The Kubota drove well however some of the American standard implements won't fit the Kubota. The 3-point is too short or not wide enough in some cases. Make sure you do your research.
