This is my first post here after lurking here for a short time. I would like to get some of your ideas on an FEL and your recommendations if I am off base in my thinking.
I will be using this tractor for a small tree farm/retail sales and some ranch work. I will also do some spadework. I am leaning towards the Kioti DK40 and the Bush Hog M346 FEL. I like the ability to add the quick attach system to it so I can use a skid steer spade and the lifting capacity of 3500 lbs. I need that kind of lift since the spade itself is 1750 lbs. I like the Kioti for its price and a weight of 3800 lbs unloaded.
I am using a tractor instead of a skid steer because of the price difference of 45%.
I appreciate your comments and thanks for helping.
