He shares the purchase price ($33,000 base, roughly $23,000 after trade), lift capacities front and rear, tire choices, hydraulic couplers, cab comfort, and a Titan grapple add-on. Light on technical specs by his own admission, best for buyers wanting a plain-spoken ownership perspective rather than a deep-dive comparison.
An owner-operator sharing personal impressions from his homestead, with no commercial affiliation evident, though the enthusiastic tone reflects someone who just made a purchase he's happy about.
The rear end lifts about 3,300 pounds versus 1,100 on his Kubota, and the front lifts 2,700 pounds at full height, making log handling much easier.
Base price was $33,000 without the grapple, and he paid about $23,000 after trading in his Kubota's equity. A comparable new Kubota would have been at least $50,000.
Yes, it has heat and air conditioning in the cab plus hydraulic couplers on both the front and rear, which his Kubota did not have.
