My wife who was in the car, refused me permission to burn it to the ground. Oh how I wanted too.

I'm thinking that Yanmar has already paid for its refit by now and you'll only get more and more out of it. Excellent little machine. The Kubota will do a LOT of work too. Both are great machines. Spare a thought for those of us who only have a 15hp ride-on and 44 gallon drum cut in half as our "tractor-trailer" rigs lol It's odd to notice some differences in setups like you have. Where I live the council requires tanks to be on a slab (although hardly anyone does it) and also containers flush on a slab (again nobody does it and the container supply companies I've dealt with suggest having them semi-raised to prevent condensation under the floor). That was just a little old huntsman. Wait until you run into one the bird-eating ones! lol. When you start a garden and get some chooks is when you know you've moved in. It's coming along nicely!
