(quoted from post at 13:07:36 05/14/18) I was talking to our dealer today and we got to chatting about the new M8 200+ hp ones that have been confirmed to be a go. He said word in the industry is they will be sporting Cummings engines. That would be some tractor.
(quoted from post at 19:49:24 05/14/18) There's a lot of money in the 200+ HP market, but I think the biggest engine Kubota makes is a 4 cylinder. Maybe that's why they're farming it out - if Perkins are still as good as they used to be, that would be even better

OU CLEARLY WERE not THERE!(quoted from post at 10:46:09 05/15/18) With people starting threads and posting pictures and explanations about their feet rotting away due to diabetes or how coffee makes them
constipated, you decide to complain about one that deals with tractors? Holding a grudge for actions that happened over 70 years ago against
a company based in that country is a tad pathetic.
I find it AMUSING and CONFUSING that you guys choose a classic AMERICAN-made tractor site to salivate over the potential NEW offerings from a company based in a country that wreaked death and destruction to America only a generation ago.
A new 'bota is hardly a "Yesterday's Tractor".

he men who suffered at the hands of the Japanese will never, ever forget. Maybe a generation or two after they are all gone, everybody will become comfortable & all worm & fuzzy. They still frown on family members that drive Japanese or German cars & if I were them, I might do the same.(quoted from post at 14:36:23 05/15/18)(quoted from post at 07:54:58 05/15/18)OU CLEARLY WERE not THERE!(quoted from post at 10:46:09 05/15/18) With people starting threads and posting pictures and explanations about their feet rotting away due to diabetes or how coffee makes them

I've always wondered why some people harbor this grudge against Japan, but are perfectly fine with being friends with Britain and Germany.
Germany should be lumped into the same pile with Japan if you're going to harbor a grudge, and if 73 years isn't too long, then what's 250 years? After all, the British were pretty oppressive in their day.

(quoted from post at 17:14:46 05/14/18) CASE BB tried that when the introduced the 1690. Basically two 3 cylinder engines cast into a 6 cyl. block with two 3 cylinder heads. The cooling system circulation was their downfall.

So one failed design means that the engineers learned nothing, and that it should never ever ever ever EVER be attempted again?
I heard that when Dodge/Ram started putting coil spring suspensions in their new trucks. "Oh GM tried that in the 67-72 trucks and it was an absymal failure. Dodge/Ram is making a huge mistake! These trucks will never be any good."
Well, come to find out people had figured a thing or three out about coil spring suspensions in 40 years. I'm pretty sure RAM is still using coil spring suspensions in all of their 1500 trucks, and now the 2500 has a coil spring suspension too.
I'm pretty sure many successful engine designs have been made by adding/lopping cylinders to/from an already proven design. The engineers at Kubota are not stupid, and they know what's at stake.
