For those of you that wondered about the buddy seat and the 4 wheel drive lever there is a pic. That shows that the only thing that gets in the way is the seat belt of the buddy seat but you can either take it off or just not use it my girlfriend loves the buddy seat tho.That is the h260 loader I highly recommend this loader if you plan on using the loader alot. It is made a lot heaver and is only 700 more dollars and the fenders r the ones for a m series just like you have to order the buddy seat from the m series. This tractor seems to be just the right size for 112 acres of hills and flat places. It seems that I am going to have to upgrade on some of my equipment cause the tractor is pretty stout. I had some issues at first with the hydraulics and the power reverser but after the dealer addressed these issues tractor seems to be a great investment I am only 25 and only put 25 hours on it so far but we will see what the future holds for both of us lol. The total price for this set up was 49400.
