Good evening Neil judging by the size of your operation that roof is a drop in the bucket 😂 thanks for the videos I wish we had a dealer with 1/4 the resources you have very impressive
OMG! Near the beginning third of the video, I was noticing how your speech cadence and presentation reminded me of Doug. I had to do a doubletake when you mentioned him!!! A guest appearance is now only a matter of time. I can't wait!
Nice overview. I agree with you. The armrests are really nice to have.
Nice looking tractors. I went to my local kubota dealer 9 years ago to buy a new L3400 i think was the model number. He proceded to tell me i needed to buy a used bx he had. I thanked him for his time and bought a MF. Wish you were closer to me!
I have been waiting for this video!!
first person that actually knows how to explain fab's ( features, advantages and benefits of a tractor) I am going to buy a kabota soon and if you were closer to Minnesota you would get my business. all dealers are pretty close in pricing though.Gary
Just got me a MX5400 Luv it. Got Open machine/no cab, as cab was $$$more, yes in N. VT it'll be cold in winter, but will just dress like going skiing.
Bro I just got a job at kubota and I'm learning so much about the different models from you. Thank you for these pieces of gold for real
Glad to help
Thank you for making this video it was informative
Just pulled the trigger on a new MX5400, Can't wait to take delivery!
Gross! Belarus would have been a better choice. Cancel order before it's too late
4:30 RR tire on backwards, love the idea behind these units!
Wow. Good catch. 5:45 you can compare both rear tire tread orientations
The realization is dawning on me now as a kubota owner that there are computer problems and troubles within that can cost you the use of it at the times you need it the most!! It is perplexing after specially studying these tractors for a couple years I did not finally find out how sensitive they are and how much they can cost you when you have breakdowns early on in the tractor's life. This winter I have to Give up my MX 5200 to get back on an old 8N Ford.,!! And RED HOT about trusting the japenese workmanship, and the American dealerships & service centers backing them!
Enjoying my new MX5400 that I bought this year. Stepped up from a L3301.And I bought mine with R1 tires. Don't understand the infatuation with R4 tires except that people love the wide look of tires.
Nice video, its too bad you're so far from West Texas and Southern NM. I think the L4701 will do everything I need. Thanks for the lesson.
Neal is funny, hot in the summer in PA. He needs to come down here to Louisiana to experience what hot is?
believe it or not, the northeast gets extreme Summers as well. just short lived compared to our southern summers. I grew up in NC(back now) but lived in FL for 10 years in my 20s. FL temps NEVER got above the low 90s but the humidity was always 90+% as well and it lasted from February to December 11 months every year haha. In 10 years I never once saw 100 degree day in FL. In NC, we have 5 or so 100 degree days every single summer. They see 100s up north as well.
Pfft it feels hotter only because of the humidity and difference in the sun.... go to a big Midwest city where they bake in the high 90’s and humidity during the day then continue to bake at night from the heat being released at night from the roads and houses and high rises
Just purchased my first piece of equipment today, a Kubota mx5400 with grapple and brush hog. Just want to say thanks for the videos Neal! Kubota doesn’t pay you enough! Your videos sold me on kubota! I woulda bought from you but you’re a bit of a drive from Arkansas! Lol
Are you still liking your mx5400 thanking about getting one I'm in Arkansas too
@@js4455dl so I ended up trading the mx5400 in for the mx6000 because I wanted a cab model. I have a landscaping business so we used the 5400 for brush hogging, tree work, grading, snow removal, etc. it was a work horse. I put 600hrs on that tractor in the first year of ownership. I would’ve never traded it but I was tired of freezing in the snow. I loved the mx6000 also. I pulled an 8ft landpride cutter behind it and put over 300 hours on it as well. Neither tractors gave me a minutes trouble, never left me hanging once! They were both trouble free for us! I ended up selling the mx6000 because we bought a skid steer and it’s able to do all of the work the tractors could and didn’t want two payments! But I will buy another Mx one of these days for sure!
you do awesome job on your videos
Glad you like them!
Doug DeMuro is the type of guy that gets mentioned in a tractor review.
Yes, I would say arm rests are required.
Wow that is a big dealership! I think you need to give us a complete tour.

Thanks for all the information you provide on your channel . I am waiting on the BH 92 backhoe for my MX 6000 and have seen a ripper attachment for the backhoe on a BX23 , do you know of a riper that would be the proper size and would fit on the BH 92 backhoe ? Thanks for any information you can provide .
i have a mx5000 open cab 4x4, nice unit.
Hi Messick's thanks for the detailed video on the MX series. I have a quick question: Will the CAB version of the MX will ever have a Backhoe like the grand-L?
I'm on the market for a compact/utilitarian tractor and I'm considering both the MX and L-Series. And a Backhoe IS A MUST implement for me. The only information I'm looking to get the answer to this question before making a decision, since the CAB a pretty new on the MX series, I'm wondering if Kubota will ever offer a backhoe for the CAB version. I'm willing to wait for a year, as long as I know Kubota will be offering one.
Thanks for chiming in.
Hey Neil, Great video and information as usual. I like it better when you aren't trying to do a test drive while talking to us though. I can hear better when you're not bouncing around.
Do you have a video on the operation of the shuttle shifter on the 5400
Hi Neil. I’m in the market for a tractor to support a storage facility. Primarily will be used plowing snow, jockeying trailers, land plane, rolling drive aisles, raking gravel after plow season, and forks. Been looking at the MX6000. Thoughts?
FYI - Took your advice on the personal tractor and went with the L3901. Taking delivery this week.
As always, another great video!
cool tractors
Fix the roof NEIL!
Nice review nice product.
ua-cam.com/video/VVfDNBqNPrY/v-deo.html
Does the LA1065 loader have hydraulic Parallel technology for the bucket and forks, it certainly looked that way?
Where is your Neal score? I think you need to do an episode as a omage to Doug and review a new tractor like he does with all the quirks and features and then do your test drive and give it the Neal score.... All viewers lets give it a thumbs up for a Doug'ish review!
Doug Demuro Omg lol 😆 That guy is such a dork but he is funny.
Neil, great video's! I too would like to see a comparison between the MX6000 and L6060 (open station for me). I have to navigate steep inclines while brush hogging and do not want a gear drive to have to push in the clutch at the worst time (3/4 up the hill). I thought the L6060 would do the trick with the additional 3 ranges and the auto switching but it sounds like the MX6000 may work just as well. I look forward to your comparison video.
This is already in the works.
@@MessicksEquipwhat NH tractor would best compare to the MX6000 / L6060?
@@MattN03 Boomer 55
On the gear transmission do you have to clutch to change direction?
As an engineer guessing that latch on the right side has no outside entry as it's supposed to only be used in the case on an emergency. Such as you rolled it into its left side and need to escape. Could be a cost savings though. Dang bean counters.
You could very well be right, if that's the case this is the first tractor I've seen that done on.
Would it be possible to do a side by comparison of the Grand L 6060 and the MX6000? Particularly interested in the snow blower attachments and the automatic front hitch.
Yea, I'm going to do that here once we get some nice weather.
id say the right side door is just to open the door to talk to someone on that side or look when it gets dusty.
I work 200 acres in Massachusetts, we’ve only got one cabbed tractor and that’s cause it’s too big to get open station
Mike Morgan youtuber outdoors with the morgans has a mx5400 and has some great videos on the tractor working.
Great review vid on new MX6000/5400👍just wondering with servicing does Messick’s offer tailored services like my father is getting old n is unable grease high fittings let lone cab fitters. Does Messick’s get lot older farmers do extra services to help them tractor maintenance?
Yes, we provide full service on many machines
The prior models were the MX4800, 5200, 5800. I own the 4800.
trey smith I was going to say that too.
I love the throbbing sound of the kuboter mx6000. Hot. 9:33
I’m looking at buying a MX6000. Is there any significant changes from the 2020 model to the 2022 model? Debating on buying a used versus new off of the lot.
I am big fan 😊
Hi Neil,
Great video as usual. How much would it cost to put a mid-PTO on the Mx 6000 cab? I know the L6060 comes with one but I just Hate the tiny front tires on the L series. Thank you in advance.
No mid-PTO on the MX-series.
Neil, my local dealer tells me there is no armrest kit for the mx6000 in either the cab or open station variants. If you know the kubota product number for this kit please reply with same. Thank you.
Can the MX5400 or MX6000 factory cab models have the BH92 Backhoe attached to them?

Does the gear transmission on teh MX series require the clutch to go forward and reverse?
I was thinking of replacing my MX 5200 for the new mx6000
will my loader fit on the new one
Nice tractors! Roof shingles not so good :-)

Trade a B3350 for a roof?
Messick's
Lol!
Maybe their tractor prices are "going through the roof."
Is it possible to see the MX6000 next to/compared to the Grand L6060? I know you mentioned some of the difference, getting to see them side by side would be helpful.
Yea, I'm planning on doing that.
@@MessicksEquip Thanks. I look forward to seeing it.
Why can’t you get the backhoe with the cab!?
its hydraulic self leveling?
I bought a MX4800 gear transmission a year ago last November, I traded in a L3350. In many ways the 3350 was a far better tractor than the 4800. At 50 hours a large amount of paint was gone from the floor near the clutch. Ergonomics on the 4800 are poor in many ways, foot throttle is in an awkward place as is the control for the rear remote. The entire housing for the rear end looks less robust than the 3350 rear end did with a category 1 3pt hitch. For all that complaining I like the MX4800, like the extra power (like that it is not turbo charged), and like the extra size. I just wish they hadn't skimped on some of the basic stuff they did.
Yeah and they charge $40+ for something they skimped on.
Neil, since you appreciate Doug DeMuro, you should begin every new tractor review with “THIIIISSSSS......is the Kubota MX6000, and today I’m going to show you its quirks and features and take it for a test drive!” 😂
Neal, with these 2 model tractors I noticed when you go to build them that there is no backhoe you can get. Can you order backhoe for these models? I am a big fan of your viedos, very informative! Thankyou!
Not for the cab, open only right now.
Personally, I would gladly pay a couple extra hundred dollars for the little, added bennies on a tractor. I bought a cabbed B3030 and had to install the rear works lights. The wiring was right there, but buried up above the headliner. What a pain to remove that and connect those lights. Also, the tractor cost about $25,000 and came with no 12-volt accessory plug. If you bought a Sears lawn tractor, it probably had a 12-volt plug.
Great video!! Why does the la1065 spec lower than the la1055
It doesn't. 2X the number on the loader for the lift capacity at the pins.
Hey Neil I just bought an Mx6000 from your abbotstown location you should do a delivery video I'm in thurmont md
My camera guy is not available because of Covid19. Maybe we can get together after this blows over.
@@MessicksEquip sounds great
Thanks for the video can you get the MX 5400 with a cab
Yes
With the MX6000 ROPS being only a couple thousand more than an L4701, is there much reason to stay with the L01 series? A few grand for a full 13 additional horsepower, category 2 hitch, and better loader seems like a no-brainer. What am I missing?
That is exactly what I was wondering!
4:30 no outside door handle??! Now that's taking cost cutting to a silly extent!
dj123 the right side is more of an emergency exit
What are the limitations on the cab model keeping it from having the BH92 backhoe from being an option? I would easily trade in my MX5200 for the cab if I could keep my backhoe that I already have.
glass hits the backhoe seat, requires a mounting kit with more set back. I'd expect to see one before too long.
I think it's time for a new roof on your building
How about a closeup walk through of the new MX Rops model? no cab, really want one.
you can watch the videos on the prior MX series. The ROPS models are nearly identical.
@@MessicksEquip true, wanted to see more of the new floorboards, seat, tilt steering
Did you loose the mic once you got in the cab, or was it just loud in the cab so you adjusted the audio during editing? Great video as always and looks like a nice machine.
The mic i was wearing was making a lot of noise for some reason, audio was from the camera in the corner.
Anyone happen to know the part# for an armrest kit on the MX5400? Not having much luck with google on this model.
I want to carry 16' logs about 30" thick, what tractor should I get? Also dig a pond, spread rock, clear brush.
MX Series
When building this tractor on line there is not a backhoe opion, I wanted to know if you can order a backhoe for it?
Not currently for the cab. Open only. See L6060 cab.
Wouldn’t a gear transmission be a cheaper option over hydrostatic?
I have a “B” series gear and it was $1000 less. I’m sure the saving are greater with the larger series assuming it’s an option.
Wonder do they over heat. The exhaust runs alongside side the motor
I work for a County parks dept. in Florida and we've never had our MX6000 to overheat. Even when I'm mowing long stretches of mosquito impoundments in the summer and with the A/C going, the temp stays steady. Of course, you MUST keep the radiator and A/C condenser clean! I always blow everything out with compressed air after mowing. Staying with Kubota's maintenance schedule is important.
Mr. Neil, big fan of yours. Thank for all you do. Please help. I live in S.E. corner of N.C. But close to Myrtle Beach. I just bought a 2020, MX5400 Kubota. To Embarrassed to call my friend I bought Tractor from. But I'm having a hard time changing gears. Is there a special combination to smooth changing? It's loaded. 4 wheel drive, HST, 4 Way Asked Steer Bucket made in Texas. Love my Tractor. It just grins sometimes when trying to change gears. Please help! Thank you.
HST or DTC transmission?
@@MessicksEquip HTS
Well hopefully the steering wheel never becomes an option, and you have to deal with the split braking for all of your maneuvering. 😂🤣
Arm rests are an option. I can't believe people will pay the money for these and then get raped on stuff that should be standard. Kubota isn't any better quality than cheaper tractors.
Neal do have any new Holland viewing on you tube
many, Yes.
I sure enjoy your videos because of your product knowledge.
Can you sell machines to Canadians?
Sorry, No.
Normally us Canadians can only buy used and not new machines
Sicktrickintuner but there is kubotas in Canada too
ALL AROUND MTB
Yes there is, but us canadian folk can’t buy from the usa when brand new
I'm have a mx6000
And I'm having a catch in my steering at times. Seems like steering shaft is binding some kinda way
has that been a problem with the new cab models
If so is there a fix for it
Thanks for the info
Turning in 4wd?
No it does not have to be in 4-wheel drive but if it is it makes it a little worse
Does the mx6000 have self leveling bucket? Thanks 👍
Our Kubota MX6000 does NOT have a self leveling bucket. You have to get really good with the front end loader controls to raise and lower a load while keeping it level. Even then, I have to stop and tweak the load level before continuing.
The right-side door is not ordinarily for exit/entrance on a tractor. The reason? It’s intended primarily for ESCAPE in the event of a Roll-over. That latch difference is unimportant. The seat armrests are a personal preference thing, IMO. I have them...and keep them folded up out-of-the-way most of the time.
It requires some agility to go in out of the right side of most tractors. I use both quite frequently.
Is it true you can't get the backhoe and the cab together on the mx 6000 ?
currently, that is the case. I suspect we'll see one before too long.
neal do you every compare the new Holland tractor line against the Kubota line
No, I have friends on both sides of the isle.
What I wanted to know is: Does it come with outside mirrors????
not standard, its an inexpensive optional kit.
I know that this isn't realy related but it's intresting to see that MX is a entier tracktor line up for Kubota and for Renault it was a tracktor line with an option already, the M stands for the manufacturer of the motor, MWM in that case, and the X for the cab option, which was the best cab in the line up.
Let me get this straight, there are no outside mirrors! Right!
not as standard equipment, they are optional.
What are the different transmission types available for the new MX6000 4x4 can model?
only Hydrostatic, if you want gears you go into the M-series.
Messick's Thank You
These new MX's are sized for 72" implements??
Yes
Does the MX gear drive have a shuttle shift?
Yes
Does the MX6000 have speed(cruise) control?
Yes
I have an actual question. I’m seriously looking at an Mx 6000. I’m getting a cab no matter what but I really want a backhoe. But when we went on KUBOTA’s website it says I can’t get a backhoe with a cab. Neil has a this true and if so is there ways to get a backhoe on it even with a cab?
Backhoes on cabs need different mount frames with more offset. Not one today, probably in the future.
Messick's thanks so much
Can you get that loader lever in that location without the cab
I have not tried it, but often the cab valves will work on the open station tractors.
@@MessicksEquip awesome thanks for the reply
What’s the over all width with r4 tires on the big one ? With cab
Hey, I could really use some help so I can keep on tractor-ing a long as possible... I've got a not so good back and after bouncing in my spring seat all day, it takes a toll, so I really need to upgrade to an air ride seat in my MX5400. Is there a "plug and play option" for this tractor or something I can make a few modifications for to make it fit? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! 😁
There is for the cab tractors, but not the open station models. Which do you have?
@@MessicksEquip Great! I've got a cab, luckily. Thanks for the reply
@@MessicksEquip Oh, it's a 2021 model if that makes any difference.
can you run a backhoe with the cab?
Not a Kubota one, woods makes one that works
Does Kubota still make a half track tractor?
For orchards only
Still no L2550? No L series with a cab and no emissions? BIG gap Kubota.
Just traded a b2650 cab for an l2501, It fits my needs better. But now looking into a curtis cab.
I don't think that would be viable. A 26 Hp engine could not pull off a tractor of that size, with the A/C compressor, etc.
@@MessicksEquip
The l3240 had the same engine as the l2501, came with a cab..
I don't even care about AC to be totally honest. The only reason I ever used it in my B series is because it was too much of a pain in the ass to take the doors off and then became a fishbowl. If the doors popped off easy I'd never use the AC. Its more about heat in the winter.
Hey Neil, maybe you can explain this to me. Super disappointed why Kabota would make a cab tractor 60 hp that can’t take a backhoe attachment 😩
Use a woods BH100.
@@MessicksEquip will it work perfectly without risk of damage to a cab?

Is there any specific reason why the backhoe is not compatible with the cab model?
backhoe seats hit the glass. Needs a subframe that sits further back. Issue on pretty well all cab tractors.
@@MessicksEquip Thank you for this info!
Have you had any customers that have had issues with the link controller? I’ve gone through 4 already as they bend when using my seeder and flail mower. Seems WAY under engineered to me???
Whats a link controller?
Messick's easiest way is to look at parts document H32000 Lift arm; No. 150 but it’s the “Link, Control” which is a piece of metal that holds the lift arms in place and connects to the feedback rod which ultimately gets to the 3 point raise/lower lever. I’m just trying to figure out it’s it’s just me or a larger problem
Need a roof on that building
When will the price be announced?
You can do build and price on the kubota website
