I'll definitely call the insurance company tomorrow to see if they have a farm option. Not like they don't get too much of my money already, might see if they want some more. Thanks for the advice!
Oh, I was pleased with how much work I got out of so little fuel!
As to refueling, I have long used a 55-gallon barrel with the cheapest (around $200 IIRC) 12 volt diesel pump for fueling my tractor. Of course, that is close to 8 tanks for the Kubota...it burns a gallon an hour. The loader I rented would take the whole barrel of fuel in one fill. You're right, for someone not already equipped to handle larger quantities of fuel, that'd be yet another expense.
Regular maintenance schedule was per 8 hour blocks. It took about an hour to perform. The reason some people won't do it is that in the morning they are too hurried to get out to the job and in the evening they are too tired...but it is something not to be skippped. To grease it, a full tube each time was required.
Recovery is something I didn't have to worry about, thankfully.
