Yeah, I was slightly pushing for the cab option on the L2501. Now with the L3560 it would have enough room to move around in, getting in and out. However, too many low hanging branches around here and it limits access to the backhoe from the seat.
As I was told by the wife.
Looks like I am stuck with the open station. The L2501 got a lot of usage last year. I picked it up about 53 weeks ago and I believe it about to hit 43 hours. Looks like I am not on it often enough t justify heat and A/C. However, a few weeks go and playing with driving snow and the snow blade over a mile long road was starting to make me rethink that. However, with a larger machine and a bit more power with the ability to finish quicker, I will just have to dress a bit warmer and drier for the next snow season.
I am waiting for the local dealer to get in an FEL for the L3560 and then I might be picking that up. The L2501 / backhoe with 4 way bucket will get sold off right after that.
