I have just over 40 hours on it.

I've re-graded my driveway twice, last time I cut a swale in the high side with the neighbors box blade. This driveway has been in for over 30 years, but for the first time, I think I have so it won't wash out in the rain.

Used it to clear a goat pen, and install the fence.

Used the DK to install a culvert and other misc grading and clearing around my little place. I've done the regular bucket forks and lights, and built a set of 'ghetto' pallet forks - pallets are now my favorite method of storage.


And yesterday I used it do dig a small addition foundation. 20' by 23' about 3' deep. Took about 7 hours.

The shuttle is breaking in nicely. And I'm *FINALLY* getting efficient at driving without the clutch. It's ashame Kioti couldn't make this combo, it works very, VERY well - even for loader work. The only real problem is when I try to grab the shuttle lever in the truck.
