I'm contemplating either the 3560 Limited Edition or the GL4060. There is some difference in price but the big thing for me is the 4060's extra power. It is a 4-cylinder engine, not a 3 like the one in the 35 series. I run a 6-foot flail mower behind my MX4800 and sometimes wish I had more horsepower with the MX. The 4060 would be a step back from the MX, so the 3560 worries me.
For me, the big thing about the cab is not breathing in all the dust and pollens for hours on end. After mowing for 6 hours, I tend to not be able to breathe well at the end of the day. Not getting rained on or snowed on is just another bonus.
What about a radio? I'd want a radio for sure. Does the dealer offer one? Or do you just buy a single-DIN radio from Crutchfield or WalMart? Are there already speakers inside? I'd like a bluetooth enabled radio so I can play music off my phone.
Any standard single DIN radio fits. I put some cheap Kenwood in mine. Works fine except the display is to dim. There is an aftermarket plug avalible for $25 or so. You just splice the radio plug to that as any other vehicle. On the normal Grands the antenna, speakers & wiring is already there. I think it is on the Limited too, but am not sure.

I like my L4060HSTC. I'm guessing here at 7,000' it performs like a L3560 at sea level. I'd like more power for mowing but the budget dictated the smaller engine.
