Covers loader lift capacity falling well short of the claimed 2,400 lbs, a recurring dash-pedestal electrical short, steering deadband issues, Galaxy vs. Carlisle tire differences, cab HVAC, and an ongoing calibration warning light.

An owner-operator sharing ongoing hands-on experience from their own farm, with a notably skeptical take toward the manufacturer's published specs and dealer involvement.
