my father and grandfather are old blue mostly... 8n, 3910, 5600, 7710 Series II, and 9600. I bought a Kubota M8200 because I thought I found a real deal on it, but turns out that I got a real lemon! I had always had good luck with the 6 other kubotas that I used on a real regular basis, but I just bought a bad one. had I listened to my father and "stayed true to the blue" I would've never had such bad luck, haha!
