Looking to see if any of you guys have any ideas on how to get some sort of a buddy seat into a T574. I know it's a small cab and would be clumsy and in the way sometimes, but my daughter will have a fit if I can't figure it out. She's been riding with me since she was a newborn in a car seat strapped to the buddy seat of my bigger tractors. It saved my marriage by being able to drive the baby to sleep and dealing with Cholic while I worked the late nights, my wife thought I was a god. My daughter has grown so fond of riding in the tractor while I work, she is almost always with me. Most of our tractors are large and come with buddy seats. We just ordered a T574 for materials handling because of the Hydrostat trans and I will likely be spending 10-15 hours a week in it. The kid will kill me if I can't get some sort of a seat in there for her. It's a small child, 4yrs old, but I can't have her on my lap. Just need a seat, and a seat belt for her. Her first word was literally tractor.
Please save me the long list of reasons why it's not a good idea and how hard of a problem it will be to solve, I'm already aware, but nobody is making tractors in the size that have buddy seats that are hydrostatic and I HAVE TO HAVE a hydrostatic tractor for material handling. I'm really just looking for some outside-the-box thinking and ideas that may lead me toward a solution. I don't care about cost, I cant put a price on the smile on my daughter's face all day when she is riding in the tractors with me. Seriously.... If it was going to cost me $10,000 to solve this problem, I would cut the check and smile.
