Thanks for the info in this thread. I talked with the salesman that worked with my father after a few days had passed because of my busy work schedule. At that point everything was all set as far as financing and tires were mounted just waiting on delivery schedule, so it was decided to take it as it was set up. It was purchased with R4 tires, filled, Full cab Loader with 60" QA bucket and extended warranty which my father wanted. It will be a good tractor for him as he can now mow the grass in comfort with A/C and move snow with heat. Delivered and his finish mower hooked up ready to mow. Has 3 hrs on it now. Those hydraulic valves and connectors can be added later if he feels the need. I think he will be just fine.
Lots of great feedback here which will be handy when we look at tractors for my workplace later this year. Thank you all.
