Welcome to the board.

Forgive me, but it looks like you were texting the message LOL. We're older guys here. Our brains start to hurt when we try to figure out what you are saying--all the words run together.

May I suggest editing your post using proper grammar (capital letters, commas, periods). ....

A cab on any tractor, compact, or full size farm tractor is a must anymore on the new style almost all glass cabs. I've never had a compact with a cab, but did have late model farm tractors with cabs and AC.
I know nothing about Kubota hydros.
Tires, if you main concern is field work, R1's would be your best chioce, R4's would be a good compromise for field/yard work. Frank. ....

Cab's in woods can be bad but with caution they will exist without breaking the glass and ripping off the lights.

Air conditioning, is nearly essential as the cabs are tight and just like cars built today, one goes with the other. The air conditioning system has been as reliable as any tractor we've seen.

R-4 tires will never give the grip of ag'tires in soft or slippery conditions, but they won't rut a lawn as much either.

HST plus is the most advanced hydro system out there and so far it has proven to be quite an advancement over a standard system. It can make it so easy to drive a tractor and look professional. ....

I've got an enclosed cab on my skid steer. Couldn't justify the $3,200 for A/C, but did get the heater option for $800. I've worked in 100 degree temps with only the blower running and the temp control on the coolest setting. I barely broke a sweat which isn't bad considering the cab is surrounded by metal and not a whole lot of glass like a tractor would be (my glass is tinted too). ....

Frank, still around and still stopping in and adding my cent and a half when I can! We've been quite busy here for what everyone else says so we'd just as soon keep rolling although I did take a day off the other day!

It's to bad that you won't be able to make it, I'd enjoy meeting you face to face and discussing the farming world! ....
