Nope you guys are correct on most of the points... I agree that the mirrors will be snagged almost immediately but if you look closely at the pics, you'll notice that the mirror stalks/posts are bolted to the machine frame... So the user can choose whether or not to use the mirrors. In a construction yard or other places, the mirrors would be helpful and not necessarily at too much risk. I agree that the rear screen needs to have a tighter hole pattern, and that the quick connect area needs a metal loop for hose routing. I prefer cab doors that open UP vs swinging sideways, but I don't know how you can call the cab-door junk (from the pictures). I agree that the rear hose routing may be problematic, but I don't think it's anywhere near as dire as you guys claim. Rear visibility looks to be about as crappy as many of the other units out there with vertical lift configurations. Side visibility looks slightly worse than some others due to the boom arms appearing to be on the "chubby" side. The bucket looks fine.
But it's a gen 1 machine... There's a learning curve and based on how much they've adjusted their tractors in the last couple years, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't be as aggressive with making improvements to this machine. Besides, a fair live demo will be needed before you can pass judgment on the overall quality of the machine.
