Now I have done it! What a mess!

The Canopy is on the tractor! Took myself, the sales guy and his lovely wife, and some struggling with it to get it on and lined up, but it is on and it looks good. Pictures when there is some sunshine, just too dark when we finished.

Dangit!!! It is a nicer looking canopy than the stock Kioti like I got! :thumbsup:

I was just thinking today of hassling you about a review of your tractor.

I am really liking it. It has lots of low end torque, Of course it is much heavier (1066 lbs I think) and the tires a larger and so hold more fluid, and that just makes is heavier, and lots more push. I can do so much more in 2WD it is just amazing to me. and 4WD is just better. I am almost completly used to the 2 pedal system now. I sure liked my single pedal but the 2 pedal is working for me. It seems to be pretty easy on the lawn, I used it quite a bit between showers on the lawn putting down mulch and it was fine. The tires are wider and I think that helps distribute the weight. And I can get along just fine in 2WD even on the hilly parts, with a light load like mulch. The tractor is so much more refined than the "standard" Kubota.. It is not really fair to compare it to the L3400 though, it is bigger more powerful, bigger tires, and in a different class luxury wise. More like a Grand L. Of course does not have that cool HST+ that the Grand L's have though. Overall it is a cool refined powerful tractor..

That sounds great, I am glad you are liking it. Must be a good feeling to be able to say your previous tractor can't compare to your current one!

That looks real nice. Quite the rock there too. Didn't you tell me you had lots of them on your place? I brought home a bunch of those limestone floaters from a job we had a few year ago. Just made something else to mow around haha
