I am glad we were able to help you, I got a lot of good advice from many TBN members when we bought/configured our tractors, I would mention them but know I would leave someone out. You will now be ble to help others based on your experience.

My son was running the M8540 and I was on our L5030, so I was watching him and when the bucket didn't break suction the rear tires would come off the ground; hard to tell when you are on it; didn't scare him, but sure hard for dad to watch.:eek:

Signed the papers this morning and got my :thumbsup: from Kubota credit this afternoon! The shop is doing the prep work and the salesman will deliver on Thursday! :cool2: I'll snap pics when they unload!

Also ordered 122 12' fence posts, 28 8' fence posts, 4 16' fence posts, and 6 rolls of 8' deer fence! I'm gonna be real busy the next few weeks!

I need to put up a deer fence - which will take the majority of the posts. The 16 footers though are going to be used as replacements for a couple of line posts and then do double duty as part of my "Kubota Hut" pole barn.
