History and service record of M5-091 to M9960

Replacing the M60 series. A TractorByNet member asked whether the M8560 and M9960 would be replaced by the M5-091 and M5-111 or stay in production, and another said he bought a new M9960 HDC12 rather than wait a year as he had planned. M60 series vs M5 series, TractorByNet.
Price gap. In the same TractorByNet discussion a poster compared base prices for a 4WD ROPS tractor at about $37,000 for the M8560 against about $48,000 for the M5-091. Kubota M5-091, TractorByNet.
Production years. Tractor-Info lists the Kubota M5-091 as a utility tractor produced from 2015 to 2025, with a turbocharged intercooled four-cylinder diesel. Kubota M5-091, Tractor-Info.
