Read articles →An owner-operator who previously owned a 4066R walks through a parked, side-by-side comparison of the Deere 4066R cab and Kubota MX6000 cab. He hits specific physical differences: hood material (plastic vs. metal), radiator screens, side-panel access, interior headroom, rear remote plumbing, draft-link stabilizers, entry handles, and sun visor. No loader cycles or PTO work. Best for cab-tractor shoppers weighing these two models on fit-and-finish details.
The presenter is a hands-on owner with prior 4066R ownership who openly favors the Deere, so expect a buyer-perspective walkaround with a clear lean toward the John Deere.
The 4066R has an all plastic hood while the MX6000 has a metal hood, and the MX6000 also has screens on the radiator that the Deere lacks.
Yes, the 4066R cab is domed and gains more headroom even though the roof is not much taller, while the MX6000 sits lower with wider front tires giving a squattier feel.
The 4066R uses painted hard lines tucked out of the way, while the MX6000 uses a factory bolt-on kit with soft lines running down to the valve.
The owner says the 4066R pushed snow harder, noting the MX6000 struggled a bit while the 4066R would smoke it power-wise when pushing snow.
