I'll give my opinion - I haul my tractors very frequently (several times a week). I'm running a Big Tex 14GN gooseneck trailer, 25 feet + 5 feet dovetail. I've already got a lot of miles on it and it has held up very well. Is it the nicest, best built trailer in the industry? No, but it is built...

I'm going to pull the bulbs on the work light housings today and try to identify the bulbs. The manual only says they are "35W" which is simply not bright enough to be a good work light, in my opinion.

I am a Ford guy and prefer the Super Duty in almost every way. I've had 6 Super Duty trucks including a 2017 F-350 dually. However, I enjoy driving a manual trans. I traded the Ford last November for the RAM with a manual because I wanted to try it. Unfortunately, RAM was the only manufacturer...

It's very nice in practice. Keep in mind that the throttle-up button the loader stick raises engine RPM for a faster loader cycle but your ground speed automatically does not change so long as your foot remains pressing it at the same level. I think with H-DS active, you could use Medium range...

Ask all you want - I'm happy to answer as much as I can. I'm trying to learn more about this transmission myself. As for HST strength, I'd say pretty strong. I've yet to try hills, but like I said...I towed my 30-foot gooseneck trailer about a half mile with it. Even using High Range, High...

Thanks beex. First off, one thing to remember with HST+ is that it is 100% electronically controlled. The foot hydro pedal doesn't connect to anything mechanically like an L2501 or even via hydraulic servo like an MX series machine. So stall guard has a sensor that compares the commanded...

Thanks RCW. I love this tractor.

Thanks. The headlights are actually very good...good as my truck. I’ll pull the bulbs.

Just picked up my new L4060 yesterday, and used it last night. The work lights are pretty weak...the specs say they are 35W bulbs. Are there any LEDs that are direct bulb replacements that throw off significantly better light? I don't want to replace them since I like the factory look of the...

Could be, thanks. They do shut easily to the point of latching, but they aren't fully shut on mine without a slam. I'll check it out.

Yesterday afternoon I delivered my 2018 MX4800 HST and 2019 L2501 HST tractors to the dealer in trade for a new L4060HSTC. I was sad to see both my "old" tractors go, as they were excellent machines, but excited for the new tractor. Here are my initial impressions: Appearance and quality is...

The L2501 is a great tractor, Bill. It feels considerably more capable than it's power numbers suggest. The thing I liked best was the diesel engine growl and smell of diesel exhaust. All the higher horsepower engines have DPFs with no smoke, no exhaust smell, and are quieter. Congrats and enjoy.

I guess I'm still young...considered a 'millennial' albeit at the old end of that spectrum. Depending upon finances and if we get bonuses at the end of this year, I might purchase a B2601 with no loader, just a belly mower, next spring. The belly mower is pretty useful to me on certain jobs. A...

Chim, those builds are pretty nice, and pretty cheap. But a lot of work. Thanks for the links.

I like plowing, just not when it’s freezing cold and snow blowing in my face.

That's also a thought. There is one for sale up the road from me. It's probably the original Minute Mount style though.

Thanks gents. I'm just doing my driveway and one neighbor's. The Fisher plow I have is an electric pump to hydraulics. To make it work on the Kubota would require a lot of juice. I could just carry a spare battery to run the plow and recharge after each use, but that seems like a lot of work...

I'll start a new review thread. That guy Fallon has a 4060 cab as well and he's been pretty helpful in answering some of my questions, but I'll be happy to post my impressions.

I found this from Titan...

I'll let you know how the 4060 HSTC is to help convince you that you need one...lol.
