Getting into a bit of an argument here but I have 2 John Deere power shuttles, 1 New Holand Power Shuttle, and one Kubota power shuttle. I have one Kubota hydro but on the smallest of the 3. Sure, I won't do major tillage with the hydro, but I will move dirt around the yard, brush cut, shuttle pallets around, and dozens of other yard things with the hydro in half the time I can do with the shuttle machines. They each have there place. Hydros are relatively inefficient in transmitting power to the ground but remember the Fendt CVT transmission is a hybrid hydro and it s very efficient, but $$$dear.
