Went with a cab with heat and AC this time. Will be nice for the cold weather. And it fits through an 8’ high door nicely.

I have put it to work for a bit moving firewood and cleaning up around a large burn pile. Seems to be a decent runner. I need to get a plug in heater installed in the engine soon. Then I would eventually like to add auxiliary hydraulics to the loader for a grapple. But that will be down the road. If I own it long enough.

Nice machine. If you're doing brush pile work I highly recommend an aftermarket grill guard. The grill and /or lights are an expensive fix (btdt).

Any recommendations in addition to what is on it?

Nope. Bought far away and transported. Kubota makes nice stuff!

I am not a welder, so I bought an aftermarket grill. Do a search here and you will get a lot of ideas if you're the fabricator type.

Nice ride. I mean, peace of work equipment. I was just checking some out and saw that one. Nice.

I do have a piece of some type of extruded sheet steel and a neighbor who could cut it and weld it to. It would take some cleaning up and paint first. But, would function. Hmmm

I like this one as well.
