I just bought an L3400 HST 4WD w/ Woods 1009 FEL this morning. They'll be delivered on Monday morning! I also got a 60" rotary cutter, 60" landscape rake and 60" harrow. I'm so excited that I might have 50 hrs on it by the end of next week!

Great choice, FreightDog, you're gonna love that thing. Fine choice of implements.

You might just find that you enjoy operating the Kubota more than flying the MadDog....more freedom, less routine and no Friendly Aviation Association looking over your shoulder. Retirement will be something to look forward to after all.

These days, I sometimes resent the time flying takes away from tractoring...but then I only fly small stuff.

Best of luck.

Wait to you hear the roar of the 3400. It will overshadow the airplane. Good luck with it..

Hehe, yea, had a blast firing it up on the lot this morning. I just wish I had some dirt to move or some brush to cut!

Yea, that NOT so Friendly Aviation Association is about to increase my time to retirement from 14 yrs and 2 months and 4 days to 19 years 2 months and 4 days, but who's counting?

Yep, fired it up numerous times on the lot this morning. Has a a nice sound to it. Both it's and momma's new brand Cummins Dodge Ram 2500's rumble overshadow the MadDog, but then again, I only hear the jet from the nice quiet cockpit, while listening to my iPod or watching a movie!

You can use that Kubota as a aircraft tow tractor.

We just moved from CO to NC, and I used to commute out of the airport in Hayden, CO. Sky West used a few RTV 900s on the ramp there to plow snow and to pushback RJs and other small planes!
