Well, after way longer than any man should have to wait on a new piece of machinery, my new cabbed 3046R has arrived at home. I got air-ride seat and radio with 72" MMM with 320R loader. I also ordered a RT3073R tiller to go with it. I would put up pics but I immediately put it into service.
First impressions. The RT3073R tiller is absolutely a beast and all this machine wants. On the next to shallowest setting 2.5 mph is all you want to try.
The MMM is same as my old one and does outstanding but as usual I will have to find the set up tutorial and get the deck set up correctly. Also on first inspection before delivery, the orifice was not installed, and I notified the service manager. He said it doesn't call for one, so i sent him the part number for it. I think I made him mad because when I picked it up, it was locked up in the high position, and I hastily loaded it up and went home. I tried it and its still really fast and leaks down immediately. I will find that thread and figure out what's happening.
The air-ride seat is heaven sent.
Cab and A/C is great for the Arkansas heat and humidity but a little more noisy than i thought it would be, I have run 350 horse tractors with less cab noise.
Radio is good but cheap speakers leave a lot to be desired.
Power is noticeably better than the non turbo 3033R.
Next step for the machine is to get with Mr. Kenny and get a diverter and try to get a couple more hydraulic outlets.
Find a quik hitch compatible spreader for it.
Find a single point and figure out the mounting location.
Add some assorted LED lights.
Upgrade the speakers.

Thats it for now, I will update this thread as I go and will get some pics when I get it cleaned up.

Sweet & Congrat's.

Post the dirty pictures. It means you bought a tractor, not a garage queen.

That's all nice and stuff, but a picture is worth a thousand words.

Nice tractor!

What the heck is a boomer? Strap? Chains I'm guessing?
A old truck driver term for chain binders. Especially the lever handle style before they introduced the ratchet action ones.

Thanks guys. Boomers is all I have ever called them. I always joke with my wife when we see any vehicles with lots of aftermarket accessories that they look like they drove it thru a JC Whitney catalog. Last week she heard me telling my neighbor about what I wanted to do with it and as she walked by she said, so basically you are going to drive it thru a JC Whitney catalog. I told her I was glad she listened to me every once in a while.
