I'm out in my barn polishing the back side of the wheels on my RTV and getting ready to wax under the fenders. :)


I'm in S. IN.

LOL...I've seen it and Dargo takes excellent care of his equipment.

The RTV1100 is going to be sweet...trust me. :)

BTW, a relative bought a 610 this past summer (I couldn't talk him into paying more for a RTV900) and we've been rather impressed with it. It gets around very well and can go pretty much any where a ATV can go. We really haven't hauled much in it yet...other than some 50 lb. bags of feed. I really like it...the only problem is someone has driven it with the choke engaged and it totally fouls up the spark plug and will not run. That is really just operator error. Any ways, it's some where between a Rhino (for fun) and a RTV900 (as a workhorse) IMO.

Ah ha! I just saw the plans for a new multi million dollar paint system being built for Kubota. The company building it told me that it is specifically being designed for something called an RTV, and not tractors. Hmm, I wonder what an RTV is? :D

It sounds as if Kubota is making some very expensive, long term, commitments to the RTV. Is the cost of this new painting system why the new RTV1100 will cost me more than 13k? :)

Yes, but at 13K you will have one heck of a machine.

I think 13K is way too optimistic, more like 15K but that's just my 2 cents worth:)

Yeah, I know. I just would like to have one for 13k. FWIW, I understand that Kubota was very demanding and require perfection in their new paint booth/machine/whatever it is.
