Nothing beats the smell of a new tractor in the morning. Congrats!

It is a great experience to see it arrive on the trailer and unloaded. I really like the dealer installed canopy. It’s Kubota orange, but aftermarket. All steel with an insulated liner to deaden sound. I looked for the manufacturer and didn’t see a label anywhere. Anyway, I like it better than the plastic or fiberglass canopies that Kubota sells.

- Kubota M7-171, M5-111, SVL75-2, RTV900XT & GR2120; CaseIH 1680 combine
In August we signed an order for a Kubota M5-111 equipped like the one my dealer had on his lot, but that one wasn’t available because he keeps one f each of their higher selling tractors on the lot at all time. Can’t sell from an empty lot. They have a lot of tractors on their lot, almost all one of a kind to show to customers who like to kick the tires. He said he would try to get me one by year end for tax purposes. Saturday he called to tell me he found one with a slight difference in factory build than my order - would it be okay. It was an addition I wish I ordered in the first place so I said okay. Wednesday he called to say they were prepping it, did I want Rim Guard? So it all came together quickly at the end. My nephew bet me I wouldn’t have it by planting season. So now the L6060 will be leaving - it really outlived it’s need when we got our SVL75-2 2 years ago and has been doing the work intended for something larger.

Sometimes the wait seems forever, then the shipment comes in unexpectedly.
