2 450s and a 225. It wasn't just one big thing, it was a whole bunch of little nickle and dime things. Like on the 225 there was constant fuel problems. One of the 450s you couldn't run over about 90 minutes or it would overheat. Had the whole thing gone through and yes the radiator was clean but even the Kubota shop couldn't find the problem or explain it. And yes it did it in them to. The just said they would contact the factory rep and see what he had to say. Never got a response back. Who knows. The other 450 had a forward and revers peddles on the right side and most of the time you would push it to go forward and it would go revers real sharply and then jump forward and give you a good case of head ache on the ROPS and whiplash. The other thing is it would creep in the last direction you were going. You had to shut it down every time you got off or it might not be there when you got back. lol. So you see the lack of support and all the little things just left a bad taste. I got rid of them and have my little ford and my big farmall. They do what I need they are so old that warranty isn't an issue, so that's where I am. But that's why I say that there are good and bad in all brands and colors. I am sure that if given enough time I could find enough people that don't like Ford or John Deere or IH that they could make them seem like junk to. Larry Tucker

The soil is a rich dark brown and is well looked after. unlike some areas in the midlands it is also fairly flat, broken only by hedgerows and the occasional valley and brook. A copse of wildbreaking silver birch and oak trees surround the top si
