It handles a bush hog , box blade and front end loader extremely well. There is ample power and 4-wheel drive is a must.
To offset the imbalance of the front end load, I added weight to the box blade. It handles great in tight places; HST is awesome.
A wider stance of rear wheels would help in stability on slopes, especially with front end heavy loads. A rear light should be standard, but it is easy to add on. The small toolbox has been replaced with an ammo can.
