Don't complain - suggest what's better
Finally took her out to work! And in some respect I’m glad I waited for it to dry up - continued on from where I got up to on site drainage earlier in the year , I pulled off site as the ground was pouring in everywhere the deeper we got - no fool anymore so I know when to call it!

First impressions are it’s a powerful machine, very fast and smooth - almost too smooth really, but I’ll adapt to it I’m sure.
Aircon isn’t great, I know it’s been hot but my 13yr old JD is much better and 3 times bigger cab!
The buzzer for hitch/password etc is horribly loud - ear piercing! Will hunt the buzzer down and get some tape on it asap! And I feel the cameras are abit of a fad, screen is too small to really see what’s going on so much, deffo at a glance anyway!

Other than that Its a vast improvement in most aspects over my previous 57c!

Getting the windows covered in UV blocking film will make a big difference to heat gain and help the aircon. This can be fully transparent or have tints if that is what takes your fancy.

Aircon gas might not be set at the right value, i have seen this before with new machines, certainly worth looking at

Fk me im knackered. 40 hour shift.

The missus isn’t feeling too great either, poor lass. Really been through the mill.

Still, at least I now have a genuine reason to buy a remote control scale mining excavator. He can help her dig the veg patch in a few years!

Little one will be choring battery's, cleaning OAPs gutters, block paving and tarmacing in no time at all 🤣

Congratulations Doob! Best work you've ever done, although I hate to know how quickly your forced the grandparents down the cash point to pay for the hire 🤣

Look forward to the christening..... Although I hear the church hasn't actually refitted it's lead roof since your last visit.
