The only big plus for me for the RTV1100 is the factory cab and A/C. My property has some pretty big hills on it and the RTV just won't climb them. I had a Rhino that would fly up them and a friend had a Ranger today that easily climbed them. The RTV1100 has aggressive tires on it but can't...

Rather than buy a JD MX7 rotary cutter for clearing some of the really rough stuff on my property, I think I'd rather buy a Brown 684. Here is a link to Brown's web page Brown 600 series cutters. Here is a link to the JD MX7 JD MX7 The Brown seems to be heavier built from what I can tell...

Yup, for me, a cab is the only way to go. I'd purchased 6 new JD tractors and one new CNH from the early 80's through about 2001. Due to the fact that I have allergies and flat don't like bugs all over me and being covered with dirt everytime I use my tractor, I decided that I wanted a cab...

I need to make some brackets to get it to fit, but since I think my Craftsman 20 hp tractor may have been made by MTD, do you think it will be able to handle this blade? I think the blade weighs about 32k. :) *edit* Why are attached pics so small? Am I doing something wrong?

Hey, I'm out of warranty...[:D]

Cool. Let me know how it works out. Since I now haul my RTV to do most of my riding, storage space is important. I have now noticed how little it has. I wish I could leave a suggestion for Kubota to come up with some real storage solutions for the RTV. Their answer seems to be a bad joke at...

When I installed my speedo, I did it without draining any transmission fluid. If you jack up the passenger side of the RTV, you can remove the plug and install the new sensor without loosing any fluid or draining any.[:D]

I've seen nothing on the actual expected results as far as emperical data. I don't want to turn any more R's than it turns now, so I don't expect any top speed increase. It just needs some more torque and a bit more hp. I have used a Grasshopper ZTR mower with the 20hp Kubota diesel and one with...

The 25 mph top speed is just fine for me. That's not the issue. For the weight it has, the unit is just underpowered.

Archdean, I respect your opinion but will kindly disagree with your basic conclusion. I understand quite well what the design and intention of the Kubota RTV. However, I believe that to reach it's potential, it is weak on power and will become a follower rather than a forerunner if the lack of...

Re: turbo for RTV? Only 30hp? Wow, that sounds fairly weak still for the expense and trouble. For only a little over $1200 I tripled the HP in my Cummins powered Dodge 1 ton 4X4 dually. It did cost me considerably more than that for an automatic tranny to take that power and over 1000 ft. lbs...
