As much as I love the South I much preferred the dryer air of Texas to what I experienced in South Carolina; I'm under the impression Louisiana is among the worst as far as humidity?

Yeah, if you're used to the humidity the dry air must play hell on you. Did it effect your eyes?

You'll be buying a cab by the end of this thread.

Didn’t effect much, but man as much as I looked forward to hitting the sack at the end of the day, it was bittersweet.

What dealers do you have near your property if something were to break and you needed a part or service 120 miles from your home?

Some tractors come with turnbuckle 3pts with fixed ends (Old School)
others come telescoping stabilizers with extendable ends (waaaaay easier to hook up implements)
pay attention to that - I would never go back to turnbuckles.

He brings up a good point, those distances were from my house, not the property that’s 120 miles away.

Here are the distances from the property to the nearest dealers:

Yanmar dealer - 24 miles, another 35 miles.

Kubota dealer - 20 miles, 3 others within 35 miles.

Kioti dealer - 102 miles away…. Ouch

Where will you be keeping the tractor

A fan will help keep you cool

My Yanmar was a nightmare, Yanmar was not good to work with on warranty issues.

Tractor will be kept at the house. I’ll likely only drive it up to the camp to work for the weekend then drive back
