In regards to Kubota versus JD. Kubota tends to have a high HP to weight ratio. JD tends to have a high weight to HP ratio. Depending on operators and uses, each has it's advantage.

Felling and skidding trees...when I've done that I wound up wanting as much FEL capacity as possible because I was often lifting trees on the forks to cut them and move large sections, or lifting one off another. My loader had 2500lbs of lift to full height, and it often wasn't nearly enough. Backhoe with QA forks is being delivered in about an hour to fix that problem :thumbsup:

Nice! That's an option I hadn't thought of. I've seen backhoes with 3pt hitch and box blades doing snow in parking lots. I wonder if there is a PTO kit for any of them that I could run a blower..... More lift and much cheaper than comparable farm tractor around here. Just would need to put some R1s on it since the standard R4s suck as soon as it gets a bit muddy

She's a beaut Bart. Looking forward to specifics once you get her goin. I especially like the powershift split on each forward speed. Often wish I had that.

I think that's a great machine, but I actually went a slightly different route for my larger machine requirements....delivered earlier today:
