Yes, they seem to be great tractors. You've got lots of good ideas. I think I'll follow up on some of them myself, even though I don't have the metal-fabrication tools you have. I'll think of something, though. The Quick-fist is something I'll have to do do. In the summer I often use a weight box at the back and before I filled it with cement I put in a length of 4" Black ABS pipe slightly tilted rearwards for my shovel, rake, etc and by not filling the box up all the way with cement I also have room to place my chain saw. It fits securely and I don't even tie it down. But I need to do what you did on the blower.

Wow!!! 4shorts, you definitely do nice metal fabrication, I wish you lived closer to me

Nice tractor. I bought my Grand L 4240 three months ago and only used it today for the first time snow clearing. Great to use. Very comfortable. I've enjoyed converting my trucks plow to the skid steer. I also machined aluminum caps to go over the end pipes on the fel so it can be used for storage. Built the light bar for the top of the cab so I've had fun so far.

I think the only thing I don't like is the fact they don't have an intermittent wiper but I'll soon be rectifying that. I did a video on mine this morning. Enjoy your new rig. There a nice machine.

Good idea with the weight box. I may use that one. I haven't filled my weight box yet that came with my fel.
