I bought the same tractor about the same time as you, so far loving it. My dealer is 30 minutes away and my purchase experience was very good and they delivered the tractor the next day. I didn't finance so never discussed insurance with them. The only implement I got from the dealer was a Dirt Dog grapple, and I purchased a Woods RD990 mower from another dealer that had it in stock. I've picked up some pretty large trees with the grapple with no issues, no idea exactly what they weighed. Still have the CK35 with backhoe and a bunch of implements, planning to purchase some larger implements for the Yanmar in the spring. I will probably get a snow plow for the front soon as I expect I'll need it before long.

My Kioti dealer tried to find me an NX6010 after the JD was repurchased but could not. It had a great lift capacity compared to most tractors. Yesterday, we went from sunny to near whiteout and back to sunny in 40 minutes. It was the first snow of the year. I did my second fill-up; the first one was at 6.8 hours, and the low fuel light was on at 21.3. It's very close to the RK55 in terms of fuel economy. I spent a couple of hours going through radios and found that Kenwood and Pioneer had receivers very close to the depth of the factory radio. I ordered the MVH-S522BS from Pioneer, so it will be interesting if it will fit. So far, I'm enjoying the tractor; all prior tractors were dual peddle hydro. But the learning curve was near zero. Its just as easy to drive.

I took a chance to see if I could install the Pioneer MVH-S522BS. I was able to get the factor faceplate and antenna. Minimum sanding is required on the cage to make the faceplate fit. The cell phone app works perfectly: volume, source switching, website streaming from iheart, etc. A nice feature is that the voice commands also work well in the tractor. I did not want to pay $399 to $500 for the factory radio; most tractors also have a terrible placement.
The receiver is only $139 as well.

I'm planning to install a bluetooth receiver behind the factory radio plate when I get around to it, don't really listen to radio.

I like to stream mostly and like being able to take calls hands-free. I found this thread and bought the adapter from eBay they listed.

I just finished the 30,000-lumen upgrade and will take some nighttime pictures this evening to see how it looks. The 4075r had the best LED lights and was spectacular to all prior tractors. Hoping this easily outdoes it for working late. I only had to replace the 20 amp fuse with a 2/0 jump wire /j.

All were tested with the clamp meter.

I have one of these .67 amps per

Four of these, per the manufacturer-claimed volts plus watts, should be 6+ amps, but repeated testing all were 3.91 or less.

I need to clean up the wiring and get it looking good and out of the way.

I am pleased with the results; they are far brighter than the 4075r, which was great. The last two are just the headlights; the halogen work lights were just as bad as the headlights.

Did you have to change anything with the factory wiring, such as fuses, etc.?

That does look good! Before I upgraded to 110w front and rear LED's, I dreaded going out to plow snow in the dark.

I did not change anything; I called Yanmar to ask about the factory watts of the back halogen kit. The lady I spoke to did not know. I already had the 36w, but I ordered two of the 80w to test.
