No


I think whatever is in the bag is going to be dropped down the chimney in an attempt to flush out bugs bunny.
Nearly right

Ok,the couple of times I’ve been on a busy road it’s been a benefit but I personally find it a bit too quick and a little out of control really,I rarely travel far so it’s a bit of a waste,I like the black wheels though🙄.If I changed it I would not pay the extra.

I think they do the big ag shovels with 50k maybe even 60k boxes. How on earth you keep them on the road is beyond me.

Farm next door has two of the JCB AG shovels, one large and mid size, big one is 50k but wobbles everywhere down the road! Not pretty to follow!!

My tractor is 40k, which is plenty on country lanes any more and it’s just dangerous! fair enough on long open roads 50k would be handy..

My memories of driving 50 and 60k tractors seems to be back and shoulder ache from clinging onto to steering wheel for dear life. When driving them I was of course of the age where you had to be flat out everywhere.

seen that breed somewhere else recently -- can't think where though ... how's it perform ?
No idea.

They thought it was a good idea on the job, none of them could use it safely , so they parked it up and carried on wheelbarrowing.

I couldn't use it as I was there to drive my digger.

I did jump on to try it at the end of the. I moved it around 10 meters then the owner came to pick it up, so I didn't get to test it.
