[QUOTE="830Scott, post: 99579, member: 5466"] The door on these machines are pretty awesome...if they hold up. Extremely roomy and easy to get in and out of. Great vision to the front. The cab is incredibly roomy. No frills...like a Jeep, more so than a Cadillac. I really liked the Bobcat cabs...felt like a Caddy, but also gave me the impression there would be problems with all that jazz later down the road. I like the bare-essentials of the Jeep/Kubota. It's kind of funny, it appears as though the engineers built the whole thing then realized they forgot to add a throttle and fuel gauge...so they threw it together in this little box and mounted it in the cab. But I like it. This machine is 10 years newer than our New Holland, and yet the control sticks feel like they are purely mechanical, not servos...Like you will get a tricep workout trying to moved down the road at full-speed....it is ridiculous. I'd love to put a scale on it, I'd bet upwards of 15 pounds. The foot pedals are ok. The geniuses at Kubota apparently never tried to work the pedals with boots on...nothing over a size 9 anyhow. The tip of my boot will catch the tip of these hugs bolts that come in from the front of the machine. I figured I could just turn them around then realized the nuts are welded in place. I may pull the bolts that are the problem and cut off the last 1/8". I will post more it happens. [/QUOTE]
