Bow, I guess you have to own a tractor to really decide what works best for your needs. I think Kubota has put a lot of thought I their HST and loader. It's a dream to operate.
On the other hand there are places I wouldn't use the Kubota, instead I'll use a cheaper terramite when it comes to blazing a trail through a woods. I would worry about damaging cab windows. Kubota doesn't work in tight places and doesn't have a hoe that you can use without getting of cab, No rollover protection either. No way would I use a new Kubota to poke a brush fire and drive over hot coals. Have to be very careful not to get too close to trees and damage cab.
My point, not one loader can do everything. A Kubota can lift higher, has a larger bucket, a sweet HST, 4x4.
Terramites has 2 wheel locking differential when going forward. With rear ballast I don't need 4x4.
And you don't know what works best for your needs without many hours on the seat.
Remember you get what you pay for most of the time. A backhoe may be the best loader but they don't have a PTO.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
