I like the orange of my Kubota. If it were tan or green, I'd lose it in the field

What's the real story on yellow for construction equipment and vehicles? It's not 100% now, as Daewoo and some others are orange, some red, some white, like Terex, but it used to be 99% yellow, and even the vast majority of dump trucks, and work trucks on a road job. I once heard it was something to do with insurance, but that makes no sense. I would say now White is the norm for fleet vehicles, which makes since, easy to resell, doesn't show dust/dirt as bad, doesn't show scratches; but why Yellow?

I have always been told it was for safety, the same reason school buses are yellow.

Years ago The boss was hauling a Minneapolis Moline painted power yellow, slightly wider than the standard 8 feet, he was stopped by police and asked for the permit to haul over width equipment. He had one heck of a time explaining the tractor was a farm tractor and did not need a permit. But it was yellow and industrial color the officer kept stating.

I had to get used to the bright blue on my LS, but now I think it’s pretty sharp

my favorite though is the Massey Ferguson red/silver
Hope to own one one of these days.

I do like the LS Blue also.

I can't tell. Is it just a black loader? Wheels, too?
