I know, my problem is I don't know if I'll ever actually need them...and if I decide I do need them, what to actually order.

Still figuring out everything I want before I place my order. I know I want a quick connect hydraulics up front, as we have a grapple bucket we can use on it. Do I need (or should I get) connections in the rear? I don't know if or when I might use them, or actually what I would need to get if...

Thanks, lots of options there for sure!

Anyone have experience with the Woods RB84? It has tilt, angle, and offset, and doesn't seem like it will break the bank. I can't seem to find a land pride that has similar features that isn't a good bit more expensive. My guess is 80-90% of the use will be clearing snow from our driveway.

Thanks. So I assume the shoes designed to keep the blade at a steady height when plowing snow? That way you don't dig in to the driveway?

One more question.... if I get a canopy, is the Kubota factory the best route to go? Dealer said its pretty nice, and price was $400. To me, that doesn't seem too bad. Thanks

Thanks for the info! Dealer recommended 7' as well. MtnView....What are skid shoes? (newbie question, I know LOL)

Thanks for all the responses. :)

Figuring up all the potential options for my new rig...just wanted to get opinions on canopy's. Good - bad ..... pros's - cons? Personally, I like the looks of it...not necessarily an option I have to have by any means, but would be nice to keep the sun off while mowing. Thanks :)

Sorry for all the questions I've been posting. Getting ready to make our purchase, trying to figure out exactly what I want to get. Looking at L3800 HST 4wd with FEL 66", and would like to get a rear blade for it. Not sure what to get, and what type and size is recommended. Will primarily be...

Thanks fellas! Glad I found this forum, learned ALOT already just by searching and reading :D

Thanks guys. Any recommendations on if I should set them out, and if so how far to set them out? L3800, 66" front bucket is what I'm looking at. From what I've read, seems like widening the stance should be a good thing. Thanks

Looking at a L3800. I believe that R1's would probably be a good fit for me. Tractor will mainly be used to remove snow from (and maintain) 1/2mi gravel driveway, and mowing a few acres (non yard). Occasional use in the woods. Our property is wetter than most I'd say, during most of the year...

Good info Stone. Thanks :)

I'd be interested in hearing what folks say about these also. I'm looking at an L3800, and possibly those implements as well.
