Welcome to OTT and congratulations on your new machine. She is a beast. I just recently joined this site also. So far everyone seems pretty cool. There is a lot of useful experience on this site and the guys seem quick to share with you any help they can provide. keep the photos coming and share your projects with us as they come along. Again, welcome.

Thanks guys, I've been looking for a tractor for some time and the Kubota just felt right. I am wondering if any of ya'll run grapples and if so what kind and design works well? Mainly be cleaning up in and around a pecan orchard. Will also use it to clean up tree tops that I don't cut into firewood. We got alot of dead trees from the drought and ice storm this winter

Welcome to OTT, the MX4700/500 is a really good value. I don't have a grapple, but am probably going yo buy one this year; sorry I can't help on that aspect.

I've been looking at some of the rigs here on the forum, looks like there are plenty of different designs on the grapple to choose from.. Decisions Decisions.....
