Hydros change direction faster and wouldn't nail the operator with jerky shifts, but in this size the only thing that is better are the big CVTs, and after watching how it works, Massey's 5610 and its wunder joystick (although the Massey would require getting familiar with it before really making the most of the features). The wheel loader is more efficient than the M135X, but the big Kubota handles its plow much, much better than the smaller M9540 (with the goofed hydro shuttle), and it can drop the wings of the plow for edging (which I did yesterday at two different locations, something the wheel loader pusher plow cannot do).
Normally teams of hand shovelers swarm ahead of us and plow-mounted pickup trucks or skid loaders come in before us doing the detail cleaning, and we show up and push snow. After we're done, a salt truck chases in and salts everything up.
Three young brothers started this business ranging in ages from 35 to 31. Good for them.

My sister and I worked on burning before the warm weather comes. I suspect the DNR will not be issuing burning permits this year due to the lack of snowfall.

I'm glad to learn that other NX owners are striking out on their own and breaking their own stuff, rather than relying solely upon me to break stuff!
All jokes aside, that isn't a bad price for the upper front glass.
What is your set-up for clearing snow?

I use mainly the bucket with a cutting edge for stacking and a 8' and 10' box pusher!! Depending on lot!! I have a 9' Curtis trip edge with wings! On my 09 Dodge Ram dually! I also have several wheel loaders box pushers and buckets & 4 john Deere 310's 1 on each shopping center with 15' box pushers and the bucket for stacking, about 30 independent pick ups with there own machines, skid steers,kubotas, etc,
None of us like using plows on our tractors defeats the purpose of the box and bucket to scoop up and move on!! The trucks , UTV's quads, & skidsteer do well enough

The only damage to my New NX has been the windshield!! The loader handle ripped the cable out do to soft metal, he said they my recall it!! The HST "CAL" problem went away with letting air out of the rear tires????? The range selector was just an adjustment in the handle!! Now it goes smoothly into all 3 ranges?? No codes or stored codes
