Did you trade off the wm60? How did the wm60 hold up? I followed your old posts on it. Would you still recommend it?

How about fuel economy?

Thanks. That is impressive. I have had nothing but problems with the tier 4 system on my Kioti from the beginning. My previous tractor was a pre tier mahindra 4500. It gave me 11 years of trouble free service. I have been considering a mahindra 4550, but I brush hog 200 acres per year, often in...

Thanks!

Thanks for the good advice! The 4701 when ballasted plus the loader will weigh around 5700. I am currently using a Kioti of similar size. It does very well on the slopes, especially in areas where I have to cross the slopes. They are a low profile tractor. The tractors I owned in the past were...
