As posted before when I buy a machine its for making a living and providing a service and growing the business its not for my playing on my property I just can't afford to buy a piece of equipment for that purpose it has to earn its keep. lol Now I know I will enjoy operating it I just need to ensure that it can do what I need it to do.

I have a M59 With a soft cab and heater. The cab can be taken off in the summer and the heater was easy to plumb in. I use it for everything .... it starts no problem in the -45 just plug it in. Had an L39 that was also a great machine....But the M59 is so much more. You can pull it with a 3/4 ton truck and trailer.

Good luck with you quest.

What are you doing with your M59?

Laneways, Trenching, clearing land, Lifting trusts and framing, landscaping, Hauling our logs for firewood, etc. Use it for my semiretirement business, I have pallet forks, snow blade, huge bucket, rock bucket , telescoping boom snow blower. it does it all.... and very well. Tried and L47 ....just felt to small. M59 or M62 would be the best IMHO.

Ahh ok yeah that similar to what I want to do with mine when I get it, I'd like an M59 but there aren't many if any in Western Canada and the M62 is over $80,000CAD. I'm hoping to get my septic installers ticket this year and the plan is to eventually upgrade to a KX-080 once the timing is right.

I bought mine from Quebec and had it shipped to Ontario. Built the freight into the price.
