Kubota Grand L Series vs MX Series

The Kubota Grand L and MX Series are very comparable machines with many similarities, but there are also several notable differences that may lead you to choose one over the other. Zach walks us through the pros and cons of both (including the cab versions)!

There are a couple things you didn't mention in this comparison. The front wheels/tires and front end are bigger on the MX series compared to the Grand L. I had the side mirrors, right door handle and an air ride seat added to my MX 6000 for minimal cost and still paid far less than I would have paid for a Grand L. Upgrading from a 2016 L3301 open station to the MX 6000 cab felt like trading in a Ford Pinto on a Cadillac. Your video is very good and I wish I had that to watch while I was deciding between the Grand L and MX but there are some deciding factors you could have added on behalf of the MX which are better than the Grand L. In the end by picking the MX cab over the Grand L cab I missed out on the upgraded HST tranny, digital speedometer, standard side view mirrors, arm rests and exterior 3 point lift cylinders vs. interior cylinders. I gained larger front tires and front end. After adding on the side view mirrors, air ride seat, wheel weights, beet juice ballast, and 3 point quick hitch I still saved thousands and feel like a king in that economy cab.

Fantastic walkthru on both MX and Grand L series. Thanks dude.

Not that a grand L is bad in any dimension but the bonus from the two is frame and front axle strength and price. My MX 5200 is outstanding with everything it does. I have 5 acres so It’s beautiful with everything it does. The fluff is for the rich. I love my MX.

The Grand L doesn’t have “extra” cylinders. The MX cylinders are actually just internal vs external.

I wander why you do not recommend having backhoe on these tractors?

This was very helpful! I am currently looking to upgrade from a L3301 to a possible 4060 or 4760 cab. One of the problems is that neither dealer has one in stock that I can physically sit on.

How much did the New Grill Cost? Thank you.

So in summary, for a few thousand dollars more, you get an armrest on the L series.

That MX5400 in 2020 cost $25319 and the loader with 72 QA bucket cost 6045. That same tractor now is priced at $35773 and the loader with QA bucket is priced at $7798. You cant tell me thats not PRICE GOUGING. NO WAY THAT PRICE SHOULD INCREASE THAT MUCH. Tractor dealers are trying to take advantage of the time and there doing the same thing car dealerships are doing. Screwing the customer. People stop buying this overpriced Japanese crap.
