I love it. (I know, highly unusual with a new tractor... ) Messicks just delivered it on Wednesday.
Great operators station, though their could be more room for my knees when I spin.
Backhoe is really strong - pushed over some 40' 5" diameter trees to check it out.
Got the hydro thumb - nice, especially for moving rocks and logs, though I want to reverse the pedal.
I like the new features, though auto throttle, with bucket off and weight on the hoe, can lead to popping a wheelie. I may make a safety post about this.
The M59 is a BEAST at moving dirt. Really amazing.
Got front diverter and 3 remotes, though top and tilt hasn't shown up yet - still not in production. I'll probably leave the hoe on until Tnt comes.
Other interesting things were a used ATI Preseeder (ie Harley Rake), Compact Attachments 4n1 bucket with toothbar (love this) Kubota bucket for bulk (still unused) 24" and 12" quick coupler buckets for the hoe, and a woods rear blade with Gauge wheel.
Also got a set of Delta QA 3pt hooks - love front QA so much I thought I'd see how rear QA was. And equally important, the m59 links aren't telescoping, and after getting used to the telescoping ones on the b3030, I thought the combo of that and half ton attachments would get to me.
