The new M59 arrived last week just in time for some rain in AZ. I pulled the backhoe off and hooked up the top-n-tilt and box blade and made short work of a very rough driveway. So far after just a few hours in the seat I am very impressed with this tractor. The only thing I don't like so far is the position of the exhaust. As mentioned before here on TBN the exhaust from the M59 tends to blow back into the operators face. If anyone has a fix for this I would love to hear about it.
New M59 it is a Merry Christmas

Congradulations on the new machine. I really like the loaders on the M59's they are heavy duty. The L4330 that I sold had the exhaust coming out the same spot. I was protected by a cab but over time the front loader arm kept getting coated with a layer of black diesel soot. Sorry but I don't have an easy answer for you.
Good luck on the new tractor.
