My dealer, Okawville Equipment from Okawville Illinois delivered my kubota today. Received the best deal from them, happy to buy local. I was concerned about clearing my garage door with the height of the vehicle, but had several inches to spare. So all is good. See pictures for accessories I bought (extended oil dipstick, bed liner, turn signals, multi switch accessories panel, windshield, mirrors and top.

Drove it a little bit with my normal passenger. Going to have to get used to the "gas pedal", about threw him out of the seat when I stopped.

You are totally ready to load LOTS and LOTS of feed, fertilizer, and cord wood.......And.......Best of all...Take your best friend there for LOTS of joy ridin......God bless.....Dennis
 
Congrats! Very nice. Good to see the changes Kubota has made to the new models. Looks like the key location has been moved. :thumb: Mine is in a spot where your knee can easily hit it and turn it on without you noticing as you slide out of the seat. Plus the shift lever is on the left side of the steering wheel. Guessing 2wd and 4wd lever is still on the right, as I did not see it. The roof appears a little different. It does not curve down as much as the older ones did ....or maybe that is just an optical illusion to my old eyes.
Congrats .....now go get er dirty (with your friend riding shotgun. :thumb: :D

Parking Brake is on Left, Shift lever still on Right and 4WD Lever is down below the seat in the center of the machine (on the wall that goes from the seat to the floor board)
 
Much better place for the parking brake. Where mine is if I set it I have a hard time getting out of the RTV. :bonk:

It is kind of in the way on the previous machines. Never had too much trouble getting out but it would be a good place to bruise your thigh or get a jacket hung up if not paying attention.

Guess I didn't say but congrats to you 628. Have a blast with your new machine.
 
Congratulations !!!

Enjoy the Rush !!!!

It's a wonderful feeling owning a RTV !!!!

.......... I am very proud for you !!!


........ two guns
 
Congrats on your new aquisition....Is it just my old eyes failing or do these new RTV models have more wheel well clearance?
 
Congratulations on your purchase. Great looking machine. You will appreciate the relocated parking brake lever more than you'll ever know.

One of my neighbors has an overgrowth of old-growth arborvitae along one side of his property. The stuff is interlaced with massive vines and other crappy vegetation. Somebody probably planted the arborvitae in the early 1900s to mark his property line, but years and years of neglect turned it into an eyesore. It's a you-know-what to try to cut down and remove.

I drove my RTV900 over to help him. We looped the winchline around big gobs of the vegetation, then started winching it outta the tangles and vines and roots and limbs and all the other intertwined crap. When you pull on any of it, you're actually pulling on all of it. But with a mass of the stuff winched back, the neighbor was able to get his chainsaw onto the bases of all the growth. I winched the growth taut, he chainsawed at the bases, and I backed the RTV up to keep pulling. Then we had to cut the pulled-out stuff in smaller pieces we could load onto a flatbed trailer, which we coupled to the RTV, and hauled off to a ravine not far away.

It was an all day affair, but we got it all out, thanks in great great part to the usefulness of the RTV900. Great machine. Enjoy your new "tool."
 
Mine hauled nine loads of fresh horse poop today. That justifies it being a tool. Especially when the wife gets to load it, that helps her understand to concept :wink:
