I am hoping for some opinions from experienced CUT folks on the choice between the l4240 and the l4060. I had planned to buy the l4240, but the local dealer that seems the best (and I hope to deal with over the years) does not have any and doesn't think he can get any more.
So I looked at the l4060. Had to get my head wrapped around the new tank placement and dpf, but I think I could live with those.
But a question mark for me is still what looks to me like a greater vulnerability on the l60 series of the hydrualic lines on the outside of the FEL.

I will be using the tractor in the brush and woods some, and with a grapple a fair bit I expect.
I was wondering what experienced CUT owners thought about the routing of the FEL hydraulics on the l60 for grapple/woods/brush work?
I am pretty torn between the l40 and l60 (assuming I can even find an l4240) as through my inexperienced eye the newer configuration seems vulnerable for certain kinds of work I think I'll be doing. Thanks for any opinions.
