I saw “Made in Japan” as an attribute as well but more specifically, the entire base tractor was made/assembled in one specific place as opposed to the numerous parts and pieces from various places assembled in another location. I also preferred to have a mechanical fuel system with no computer...

Perhaps some of both? This is a photo of my tractor’s serial number tag. I understood that the LA525 FEL that I purchased with the 2021 L2501 was built in Georgia USA

Fall is quickly closing the weather window to move firewood so I made the most of a classic “partly whatever” PNW day. The rain started while I was wrapping up my day having a cold malt beverage with my tractor coach, 92 year old Neighbor Bob. Bob’s got his own Kubota (L245DT) that he’s been...

Hawk67/Ken’s mats are my first accessory for my new 2021 L2501 HST and I’m very pleased with the fit, quality and Ken’s fast and courteous customer service. Thanks Ken!

Expecting delivery of our 2021 L2501 HST before the Labor Day weekend begins.
