ahh yes messicks...i have been to so many i can't tell them apart anymore

the tracks are stock from factory, i guess they would be beneficial in wetter areas but i don't think i can see the advantage in price then running standard tires...tires for that machine would be around $700 a piece, i can't imagine what replacement tracks for that thing would go for, plus the fact that no matter how much rear flotation you have, your front wheels are still going to sink in

THe tracks would just add aggrivation to me. The tracks wear quicker and can pop off the machine. I dont really understand the kubota I saw one at the bloomsburg power center too.
