Read articles →This is a personal likes/dislikes rundown from an owner on their third Kubota, comparing the L3301 against brands they rejected (John Deere, LS, Mahindra) rather than a full walkaround. It covers the SSQA quick coupler, hydrostatic pedal, common rail engine, foldable roll bar, and gripes like the DPF system and no foot throttle. Casual, unpolished, and opinionated rather than data-driven, best for buyers wanting a quick owner's gut-check, not detailed specs or field testing.
An owner sharing informal, opinionated impressions from personal experience across multiple Kubota tractors, with a clear anti-John Deere/LS bias.
He felt John Deere is rebranded Yanmar or junk, overpriced for the name, and its JD QA quick coupler uses pins and a small tank chain that tears off during brush work.
No, the owner says he wishes it had a foot throttle like the accelerator in a truck or car, listing it as a dislike.
DPF stands for diesel particulate filter, located under the hood, and it cleans the diesel exhaust before it exits through the exhaust pipe.
The tractor had 88.8 hours at the time the owner recorded this likes and dislikes video.
