Nice manicure at 2:25 though I didn’t imagine you as a fan of pink!

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

on Wednesday we wear pink

[@whakatu4life285]

Does the Kubota come with a intermittent wiper yet? Nothing pisses me off more as an owner /operator when using one of our 2018 KX040-4 or 2019 KX057-4 in rain that's not heavy enough to have the wiper operating non stop but enough that you have to keep taking your hands from the joystick to start/stop the wiper or you get a dry blade screeching across the windscreen that wears the blade out and it just a very budget thing for a modern bit of machinery costing in excess of NZD $100k

Pink nail polish? I’d never thought it.

[@mark_Hershey]

Has anyone pointed out you only showed the interior of the kx040 as you were talking about the new u48 cab?

[@pauljohnson2372]

Your nails look great

[@rontopping2048]

Both have identical engines 40.2 hp

[@mark_Hershey]

I have a kx040. Would like the new cab and higher hydro flow of the -5. Do you think the kx040 will get upgraded to the -5? I see the u48 is heavier and has better break out.

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

I would imagine your a 1-2 years away from the KX040 updating but that's just a guess

[@StinkyTeal]

Wow, showcase the new equipment but show the old screen.... genius.

[@MontanaGrizzsky]

Prefer the 57

[@whalerlife53]

Who makes the grapple on the 040?

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

Rivard makes the root rake bucket

[@whalerlife53]

@@HuckabonesEquipment thanks for the reply! Merry Christmas

[@JamesWhite-tg4kw]

What's the number on that root rake bucket for the 040

[@trentcornum7578]

Hello where are you located? Looking for a new SVL97 and u48 everyone is sold out

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

An hour west of Ottawa Ontario Canada, Small town called Cobden

[@felixlachaume5240]

Did you intentionally show the old screen technologie ? The u48-5 has a bigger screen , you can see it from far in the video , but whe. You show inside you show the old one lol

[@mitchellheyink7722]

was thinking the same thing. the -5 excavators have a new bigger screen

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

Thanks for watching, unfortunately the footage of the new updated screen didnt work out. Please check out our KX57 video to see it

[@jetsetjoey]

Why in the hell would HE paint his nails?!?

[@sergiocuali1104]

It's the lady that usually films his videos more then likely.

[@HuckabonesEquipment]

That would be Megan our part time hand model

[@jaxturner7288]

Well uhh, how much uhh, how much you uhh, give for uhh, the trade in??

[@HuckabonesEquipment]
