curtis cabs prices are accully pretty cheap and affordable my kubota dealer here in canada works with them

[@playadeljohnnie3441]

Just took delivery of my new Bx 2380 with Curtis cab and front mount blower in the middle of a 14” snowfall! Very pleased so far.

Good evening Monsieur le Professeur 👍😉 Thank you very kindly for publishing my video 😉👍 In about two months from now I have a Big Annoncement to Tell everyone 😮😉👍 and it is not getting a new cab 🤣😉👍 Keep up the great family works Sir and great video Cheers 🍻👍

Looking forward to the big announcement! Hope you're thawing out up there. Keep on tractoring!

That is the funniest video I have seen in a while! I like the advice about the finance committee! Thanks Jon!

[@RCAFpolarexpress]

Yes, You have an outstanding one ( finance committee my friend 😉👌) Cheers !!!

It’s all about finding the right angle with the finance committee. Good to hear from you Joe!, Hi Dave! Keep on tractoring!

An Army of Small Tractor channels pushing snow! I love it! Makes me wish I had some snow to push...but I like my warm weather... Great Video Jon! ~Jon@SBYD!

[@ritterjon]

Pushing snow 5-6 months of the year isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. I’d rather dig in the dirt. Keep on tractoring!

[@jh9855]

I love the photos/video's of people plowing snow. We just took the snow blower and back blade off of our B2650 HSDC. Enjoy the warmer weather!

[@ritterjon]

Must be feeling pretty confident that winter is over. I think I need to wait at least another week or two. Keep on tractoring!

[@jh9855]

@@ritterjon I'll make a deal with you. If we receive one inch of snow or more between now and September 30, 2021, I'll donate $100.00 to your favorite charity!!

[@RockhillfarmYT]

Great video. I love my Curtis cab. Affordable and you can install it yourself if you buy the plus cab or the base cab Cool shoutout from Tim!

[@ritterjon]

Hey Brock! Yes having options it great. One of my favorite things is the doors pop off so effortlessly if you want. Keep on tractoring!

[@dmorgan28]

Hey Jon. I really enjoyed that video. You have a great idea about that stimulus money. I’m going to give it a shot. lol👍👍👍❤️

[@ritterjon]

I wish you all the luck in the world with your finance committee. Keep on tractoring!

[@Lackieestatesfarm]

Thanks for putting me in the video! I’ve since upgraded to a bx2680 with the deluxe Curtis cab!

[@ritterjon]

That's awesome! Keep on tractoring!

[@PurpleCollarLife]

Excellent video, Jon! I love all those clips of everyone out in the cold. I just got my Curtis Cab for our John Deere 2210! It looks amazing. We'll be installing it soon. It'll be great for next winter for sure, but I'm sure I'll like it in the summer too! You're absolutely right that staying out of the direct sunlight is important. Love the plow truck going by at the end of your video.

[@ritterjon]

Cabs aren't just for winter time. The plow truck guy never fails. Every time! Keep on tractoring!

[@WichhartAcres]

Great vid Jon!

[@TractorHoarders]

I love Rick’s horn!! Lol I want one now too. In my latest video of clearing during the blizzard on my 1025R, I definitely wished I had a cab. Have a good weekend, Jon!

[@ritterjon]

His horn may have been modified from its original version for entertainment purposes. Just thought I'd let you know. :-) Keep on tractoring!

Thought you might hit the garage door...then it says "not yet"...had to laugh...keep on tracktoring 👍

[@ritterjon]

It's just a matter of time. It's been 6 years of plowing and I haven't.. YET!! It's bound to happen eventually. Keep on tractoring!

[@khtractors]

What a great video! I really liked all the pictures and video clips! Your so good to help promote other channels, you’ve helped me more then you know 😃. I think we are going to Disney World with our stimulus money. If I threatened Tiffany with needing a cab to protect my health she would first ask how much life insurance I have 😂😂. Trust me been there already. Hey have a great day!

[@ritterjon]

Hope you enjoy Disney World! I've purchased a few things that make me question whether or not I should tell my wife. I sure would like a new truck. Keep on tractoring!

[@khtractors]

@@ritterjon no you (Need) a new truck! I’ve been working on an equipment trade myself the last two days. Not sure if anything will work out or not. I’m getting frustrated with the lack of ambition from the dealerships.

[@istepheniadeluca8531]

I bought the cab & now live in it... The wife got everything else 😂😂😂 🚜🚜🚜❤🇺🇸 God bless tractors & the cabs😂😂

[@ritterjon]

Sounds like you’re enjoying your cab! That’s awesome! Keep on tractoring!

[@BradMyers]

Cabs are nice. My L3560HSTC keeps me warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

[@ritterjon]

That's a nice machine you have! I bet you really enjoy working with it. Keep on tractoring!

[@christrostad5443]

does your cab leak cold air by the control levers

[@HuserHelpers]

You Heard it from TTWT, now see the man... A Ritter Bit of Jon will do. Great seeing a new video. Also, both of those shots were done in -5F temperatures. By the end of the 1 hour outside, I couldn't feel my toes or fingers, and when the feeling started to come back, the stinging was really bad. Close to frostbit I would say. @1:43

[@ritterjon]

burrr, you looked a bit cold Jason! Thanks so much for sending me those pics. Keep on tractoring!

[@BiffsEquipment]

Great video Jon! You had me rolling over at the end , your a funny guy! Love the content love the photos and videos you used from others as well.. very cool stuff! The tractor community is one of the best around. When that lady said “honk the horn grandpa!!” I said “a BX don’t have a horn come on lady.. HONNNKKKK I said holy SH*T!!! 😂 Keep ‘Em coming Jon!

[@ritterjon]

Hey Biff, I know I'm late on this reply but thought I'd let you know that the horn really gained some power in the editing process. 😂 Keep on tractoring!

[@BiffsEquipment]

@@ritterjon haha! Well I thought it was perfect! Stay safe Jon, I know we got some nice weather coming so hopefully you do too and can take your new quad riding with the family!

[@ritterjon]

A very wise investment! Keep on tractoring!

[@bhall7997]

You got me in trouble again !!!! I didn't realize my wife was paying attention to what i was watching :( !!!! 2 years ago when my wife "aka finance committee" got a B2601 payment she wanted cab and backhoe added on, I didn't buy them.. She made the comment watching this that the purchasing committee didn't buy them lol Last year I did pick up a Curtis canopy for it + received Carhartt type snow suit from Santa for Christmas lol To be honest she was serious about paying for the tractor the payment has really come from her direct deposit wages.

[@ritterjon]

Sounds like you have a finance committee that's willing to negotiate with you. Maybe it's time to upgrade to an LX2610 with cab. You'll have no regrets. Keep on tractoring!

[@mikeconstantino2885]

Hi Jon, great videos. Do you have the kubota 3rd function kit? If you installed it yourself did you do a video on it? If not any chance you could post a close up pic of the hydraulic connectors on the loader?

[@ritterjon]

My third function diverter valve is mounted to the loader frame itself. I really like It with that configuration. It is a Kubota OEM option. Keep on tractoring!

[@mikeconstantino2885]

@@ritterjon I’m installing the same kit. Any concerns with the connectors sitting out front directly connected to the value? I need to get the right couplers as the kit does not come with them, but mocking it up it seems like they could get whacked by a branch.

[@ritterjon]

@@mikeconstantino2885 I haven’t had any issue with branches. Summit hydraulic has those flat face couplers for $20 a piece. I’d like to upgrade to those just because.

[@jimmccullough1051]

Loved all the clips in this episode, if I had known in advance I could have sent one basking in the sun by the pool! I do NOT miss the snow, made sure to leave it all in Wyoming when we moved to Florida.

Thanks for watching! Hope you're enjoying the nice weather in Florida. Keep on tractoring!

[@OrangeismyNewGreen]

Love the rear blade action, I would love a cab but a lot $$$ up here, close to $8-9K 🤑😕. Have a good weekend 👍🏻

[@ritterjon]

Wowzers that's a lot! I wouldn't spend that kind of money for a cab either. Keep looking around. Keep on tractoring!

[@OrangeismyNewGreen]

@@ritterjon forgot to mention it includes tax and installation but still...🤷🏼‍♂️🙋🏼‍♂️

[@deanbarr5740]

One more thing to add to your list Jon, bees. Them little stinging critters that like to build their nests in the ground. A Curtis cab could prevent you from getting stung to death.

[@ritterjon]

That is true, I forgot to mention that. I've came across a ground hive where the cab protected me from. Horse and deer flies also. Keep on tractoring!

[@deanbarr5740]

I'm gonna try this line on my financial advising wifey when i get home from work. Huh, maybe I'll be getting me a Curtis Cab. I will let you know if I do. "Wish me luck"

[@GrampiesWorkshop]

How's she goin'? Jon I think you like your cab!!! LOL I have a Curtis cab, soft sided, and I just love it. Once you have a cab it would be hard to go back to an open work station tractor. Take care!!

[@ritterjon]

Worth every dime right Grampie! Hope your thawing out up there! Keep on tractoring!

[@k6outdoors]

Great video! Curtis sure makes a good looking after market cab. I've definitely considered one and might have to get one! Let hope the white stuff is done for the year. -kyle

[@hannaransport]

Hey Jon, I just ordered a bx23s with the Curtis cab, forks, 55” blower, belly mower, thumb on the backhoe, cutting edge on the bucket I hope they look and work as great as your videos

I know you're going to love that set up. I'd like to upgrade to the 55 inch snowblower. Mine is just a 50. Keep on tractoring!

Can’t wait till it rolls in on a trailer down my driveway :) I was going with the 50” then last min I changed my mind which I think I’m never gonna regret, they said about 2 weeks count down on the way

Very cool. Still makes me nervous when you are backing up to a garage door.

[@mikekowal4944]

Lol...I have a b2650 with cab..I almost traded it in on a bx 2680 all decked out ...loader every thing...even!! My wife knew I would miss the cab...but I really want a loader 😪

[@ritterjon]

You need a loader for that machine! That would be a lot of fun for you. Keep on tractoring!

[@christrostad5443]

How do you stop the leaking of cold air by the levers in the winter time?

[@ritterjon]

I’ve added so foam weather striping between the levers and I also use some old towels to try and cover the remaining gaps. Keep on tractoring!

[@wlsteffen]

That blade has the perfect roll. The snow come off the blade well John. Do you put silicon on the blade? Wayne from Wisconsin

[@ritterjon]

I use spray on turtle wax. This was some sticky stuff but on the other hand I think I missed spraying the last couple snowfalls. Keep on tractoring!

[@ritterjon]

Grampy's horn my have had a little help in the editing process. Just saying. :-) Keep on tractoring!

[@OGAOutdoors]

Thanks for all the advice, but I'm guessing an orange cab would clash with my green tractor. Besides that there is no way my committee would go for it after all the other money I have dropped on toys I mean tools.

[@ritterjon]

Curtis makes cab for many models. There are a lot of options for you. You can't have enough toys, I mean tools. :-) Keep on tractoring!

[@lancekoenders5647]

Hey Jon, I bought a BX23S last December with the same Curtis Cab you have. Do you find it really difficult to get the backhoe hydraulic lines on and off? Not sure if it is the way my dealer installed it or just the cab design itself. Love your channel!

[@ritterjon]

Yes, it’s a really tight fit. I’ve heard of other having the same issue. Bend that metal tab down just a tiny bit and it will make hooking up that hydraulic line much easier! Keep on tractoring!

[@kevinbrewer2141]

Boy you're really rubbing it in to all of those channels. I don't think they make a cab for my lawn mower. Lol maybe one day I will get my compact tractor.

[@ritterjon]

If you look hard enough you can find a cab for almost anything, even four wheelers. Hope all is well. Keep on tractoring!

[@bradenhosking9342]

Im curious if you used pipe insulation in and around the levers, if it would help with that HST whine? I have been talking with the dealer about upgrading. He was pretty adamant that the noise was amplified inside the cab. What are your thoughts?

[@ritterjon]

I've been thinking about ways to deaden the sound. The HST whine doesn't bother me as much as it does hearing it on video. The noise is slightly amplified in the cab but I typically wear hearing protection so it's not really an issue. Keep on tractoring!
