Very nice! One dumb question though, what is a high tunnel?
Well, we took the plunge

Basically, an unheated green house. Some might call them a "hoop House". Metal framework with plastic stretched over thee frame. You can grow some things year round in them usually but we had a couple days last week that were really cold. One night the wind chill was 40 below. I think that did everything in except the carrots. Oh well, you'll have this with farming.

Congrats on your new tractor! It's a purty thang 
I have a L3400 HST '09 year. Mine's just my toy, and never used for just 'work'. Boys and their toys, you know. I had to quite riding my Harley, so the Kubota is the replacement.
Service manual and parts catalog to me are essential. I buy the factor manuals with any and all new equipment, i.e. trucks, cars, bikes, you-name-it. Not that I plan on fixing it, but it's valuable information in determining problems or questions. One important thing about them is that you need to buy them asap - later they may or may not be available, and you'll wish you had them. Plus - if you ever sell your tractor, having the manuals to go with it (if you like) is a great selling feature. Sure - they're pricey, but worth having for sure.
I on the other hand, never let go of my manuals. I have auto manuals dating back to 1949 and wouldn't sell them for anything. I guess I'm just a dust collector, but if I ever want to go back and check on something - I got 'em.
