"I would be willing to bet the babies milk money"
Damn, age is a hell of a thing to cope with!!
I just learned that: Babies need milk money!!
How things have changed!
What's next? A token in hand just to be conceived!!

Dealer will build mine tomorrow:
RTV900 Worksite:
1. Metal top
2. Speedeometer
3. Glove box
4. Bedliner
Any suggestions for last minute addons?

Abrupt Stop:
All 4 machines I drove had a slightly different stop rate, which proves to me they are adjustable to some degree of preference!! And all 4 were assembled (setup) by the same fellow, will report later how, what and why!!
Personally I prefer not to lurch forward as in right now!!!As in an Iguana's tongue catching an insect!!
An other interesting note is the speedometer works in reverse as if that matters!!

"How about a windsheild. You might want one."
Mark,
Considered and rejected, reason being for 500+or-$ and since I wont be towing it a cut piece of plexi will do for me in the winter and in the summers here in Okie land the breeze feels welcome!!
Might change my mind later after some seat time but at the moment I'll try it first but thanks for the thought, no doubt about it if I was going up and down Skyline in ER you bet your bippie it would have a windshield!!

I noticed that my last post was 8 months ago and I would definitely buy another one!!
Driven with a light foot on the hydro stat control giving the hydro time to engage the second assist pump I have found no place that can stop it,also by feathering your foot pressure there by reducing the pressure on the valve it will decelerate to a very smooth stop just like an auto xmsn! (your mileage may vary!!
First mod was adding the windshield , radio, and xm radio,front and rear ball hitches, winch and heavy shocks (front) are waiting their turn to be installed!!
Bed liner is a must and I added a second piece of truck bed rubber mat over that!! Made for a very quiet RTV!
I was disappointed with the harmonic rattle at low engine RPM and solved that problem too and have put in a fix to Kubota for review!! Awaiting their answer but no more rattling!!
We use it every day and I'm sure you will also!!
Highly recommend the RTV900WS and also recommend you test drive one with the above procedures!!

Randy, Nice to see you again.
As to your planed purchases I just implore you to discount the good and not-so-good observations by others, myself included as a well known positive advocate of The RTV900 and test fly them side by side on your property as you would use them in an everyday working envioroment!!
I gave this measured advice to my brother who has 360 acres of hilly woodlands/farmland in up-state NY. he chose the RTV900 WS over all others he had demo'ed and even kept his two Gators for the Wife and Grandkids.. He has told his younger brother that for once he was right!!  .
P.S. It is my honest appraisal that the RTV900 has more than adequate horsepower for any working application short of sport hillcliming/racing!
