I don’t regret getting the open station 4 years ago. I’ve spent a lot of seat time with a pole saw or loppers reaching overhead finding & cutting limbs and vines. I mow a lot of fire breaks around pine stands that have been neglected. I’ve found the best solution is a compact forestry mulcher, but boy that gets expensive quick.Now that we have a cab, if I ever get another one, it will be standard equipment.
I honestly don't know how I survived without one. Just the bugs and dust mitigation are pleasant differences. Especially so on the ground bees when they are bouncing around off the glass. On the outside, LOL.
I’ll likely keep both tractors for a while. I’ve eaten most of the early depreciation now. I am really looking forward to the A/C and the protection from the gnats, humidity, and dust too. GNATS The Kubota Grand L with the hi/low transmission has truly spoiled me.
