LS MT3 52HC
Just signed for a MT353HC. Added a heavy duty 48" grapple bucket with 3rd function and a LS 2 blade road grader. Super pumped to get this thing. I've been maintaining my place for 7 years with a Yanmar 2420D, so quite a step up to do some real work.

Just ordered a radio (Jensen), speakers (Pyle) and phone holder for the cab that I will install. Plan on adding a titan tooth bar to the bucket and a ratchet rake to the mix.

Anything else y'all recommend for small accessories that I might "need"?

It was on the dealers lot. I went in thinking I was going to buy a XR4145. I was able to test out a XR4140, XR4145, XR4150 and the MT353. The MT3, was about 8% more out the door vs the 4140.

Seemed like a no brainer for the extra HP, Cat 2 hitch and other features. They are will start prepping it on Monday and will be delivered next week.

G'day Mate and welcome to TBN from Downunder.

I don't know what else to recommend as I have no idea as to where you are or what you're going to use your rig for.

Enjoy the site.

Congratulations! That is a step up!
The Titan tooth bar is exactly what I have. Works very well.

If you have a lot of viney type growth, low to the ground, a ratchet rake might be a good idea.
I have had one for three years......still in the box!
Tooth bar is a good idea!

I ended up getting a dealer installed tooth bar for the bucket, so cross that one off the list. I also purchased a good grease gun and half a dozen tubes of grease. Surprised at how many zirks there are on the tractor. Took delivery of it today and very happy:)
