Kubota dealer had the tractor for over 2 weeks. I called during this time and they said they were trying to work with Kubota on a solution. Then I got the call saying it is within Kubotas specs. I was livid and asked "so you're telling me it dropped only 1" in 5 minutes at your place but at...

Most of the work we have been doing lately involves 3" square tubing. A 16' length approximately 85 lbs. raised in the air for overhead gate entrance should not drop an inch in less than a minute.

Agreed, but I am talking about everyday chores around the property. Filling the bucket up with firewood to go split it at the log splitter for example. I shouldn't have to bend over to get the wood out. Yes, sounds lazy...but it is an example. I'm not talking about thousands of pounds of...

On our old 50 hp Kubota I could see the forks fairly easy. But we just bought a M5111 and seeing the forks or even the bottom of the grapple is not so easy. Started thinking about adding a camera on the front of the loader. Of course, if I'm going to add a screen, wiring, etc for a camera on...
