I bought an orange one with 4 wheel drive. it's is a 34 hp with the all Terrene tires. Like you I did a lot of research and asked a lot of questions and then purchased the Kabota. So am I happy with my purchase? u betcha, would I do anything different, u betcha !! I would buy one with the ability to pick up more wt with the front end loader. Sure, it will pickup a full bucket of Agg lime and or dirt, but it wont pick up the heavier stuff, like a big tree trunk or 3' cement culverts. And it does not have a back hoe. Wished it had a back hoe

So I suggest u look ahead and plan on spending a bit to get all of what I mention here. But if you can only get one of the thing I bring up, then make it 4 wheel drive because it will be the biggest regret u will have is with out it.
