West central Ohio | It's always been case machines here. 1845c's, 75xt's, and one 445. The 75xt's are getting long in the tooth so started looking at upgrading them, looked at cnh and kubota. Door opens up on the kubota so can get out no matter where the boom is. Electric controls on the cnh machines are very touchy, kubota is pilot controls (hydraulic over hydraulic) so much better feel of what the machine is doing. The engine compartment is a cluttered disaster on cnh machines. Open up the back door on the kubota and every filter and the battery are easily accessible. Cab is wider on the kubota as well. Cnh has slightly better visibility out the back window. Kubota is either hand/ foot controls or iso pattern. There is a dealer installed kit to switch iso to h pattern though.
We bought a used kubota ssv 75 with 300 hours on it. Haven't used it much yet as we had our dealer put the h pattern kit in. Just picked it up yesterday.
Edit to add- kubota is also much easier to get in and out of due to boom and door design
