Here is my new New M7040 HDC-1 with R4s to replace an L48. I went with the R4s as the R1s are just too agressive for what I use it for, landscape construction, farm chores, mowing, plowing, and utility work. Much bigger than a L48 which I have parked in front of it for comparison. The front tires are very large for R4s, much bigger than a L48/M59. Love the machine, going to need some getting used to having driven HST machines only for the last 8 years. Finally.....FINALLY......got myself a cab and diversifying my equipment was a big motivator for this machine. Non-TIER 4 was also a big driver. I will be posting a review of this machine in relation to a TLB (M59/L48) which is my other daily driver as the weather get going.
