Kubota B6000 specs better performance and reliability than what we’re used to seeing on a machine of this size. The B6000 Kubota has a diesel engine that starts easily, even in cold weather. The cab is extremely comfortable and includes a number of options to control the machine. Fuel efficiency was more important than power and performance, so the Kubota B6000 tractor is small enough to get the job done using less fuel.

Despite its age, the Kubota B6000 tractor has a lot of power and is very useful in our yard. We have very greasy soil and it hasn't gotten stuck once. The 4-star rating is because the PTO only spins in reverse compared to other tractors, but that can be fixed with a PTO reverser or buying older implements. The Kubota B6000 tractor has adequate power and can run almost any task. It is a very useful tool on our farm.Kubota B6000 Review
