Chris | Chris, that was hilarious!!!! That was delivery day in July, of course. Actually, we had snow in the air yesterday. Brief spit, only lasted a few minutes, but you get the idea. I'll be posting some photos this winter from here at 45th parallel. Doubt you'll see any sandals and shorts.
We're tough, but not that tough.

I paid $1200 for a 54" all hydraulic to fit my John Deere 2210.

I have about $1,250 into a 54" Kubota front blade that I'm making into a 4-way hydraulic plow. The standard 54" is manual angle. Blade and qick hitch with hydraulic up/down was about $985. If I could have done the welding myself, I could have saved about $120. The Kubota 60" 4-way hydraulic plow retails for almost $2,000.

Actually the 60" front hydraulic angle front blade retails for $1392.00. The quick hitch which you will need for either the 54', or the 60" retails for $586.00 per the Kubota site. The 54" blade itself retails for $421.00. Not trying to argue with anyone, just showing where the dollars go for the different options.

Your prices confirm what I was quoted, so for a lot less, I got the 54" with 4-way hydraulics. Still leaves one to question why Deere's 54" with OEM 4-way hydraulics is around $1,200 and Kubota's 60", albeit heavier and larger, is $800 more. I think they should offer the 54" with the option for 4-way hydraulics, like Deere does.

OK, just checked and the Deere 54" front blade with hydraulic lift and angle for a JD2305 retails for $1,298. Same set up for a 2320, 2520, or 2720 is $1,347.
