    Another nice option on this tractor. Check out where the fuel tank cap is. Nice idea! Finally! No more standing up on the tractor and trying not to spill fuel on your hood! Stand right on the ground and at waist height.:yes: IMG_2668.JPG

    Yes to the shield. It isn't as thick as I would like it to be though. I was talking with some guys over on Tractorbynet.com and one suggested a full skid plate for it. It would be nice. Some areas are protected, but not all.

    Not to mention you have to lift it up and set it up high enough on the tractor. Then climb up and raise it up to the next height. Then you usually can't get the spout of the fuel jug close enough to the funnel so you are praying you don't spill it and that the wind isn't blowing hard enough to blow your fuel all over. Here the funnel is right there. Set the jug right on the funnel and pour away without ever leaving the ground. Very nice.

    It may not be mud, but getting that tractor full of snow is almost sexier than socks on a rooster....:rofl: :lol:

    I love the well thought out features on that rig. Add that to it not having all the emission crap on it makes it even better. Thanks for sharing and congratulations on your new tractor.

    Congratulations Gas. That's just a tad bigger than what we are wanting but we haven't totally made up our minds yet on what to get.
