M110GX buying info

[psbhouston]

I am looking hard at the m110GX with e 24 speed trans. We are working the M9540s which are fine but a bit too light for all of our work.
The 110 is double in weight and comes with upgraded transmission. Any operator experience with this machine out there? Fuel economy - durability regarding the electronic controlled transmission etc?
We have a Deere 6115d that is close to the GX but not in weight. It is wider and beefy compared to the M9540 but trailering is not easy due to width.
We would really like to get feedback on this especially when the price bogey between the new M9960 and the 110 is 14k$ or so.
Thanks in advance
Greg

Kubota's powershift has been almost bulletproof since it was introduced on the M100-M120 series. also remember, you get bi-speed turn, two-speed pto and hydraulic front diff lock with the powershift! You will be very glad you chose a powershift Kubota!

Ed,

Thanks for the info. It looks good and we do need the extra weight on the ground. It is priced 14k higher than the M9960 and only 4 grand ahead of the M100 but I think it is worth to stretch into the M110GX

I don't know anyone who is pushing this model in the dirt for a reference and I hope it will double back into the "hay work" as well.

Any experience with its power etc?

many thanks

Greg
