      Time for tractor cold-start videos! This one is pretty unexciting, but it's the first one for the new-to-us Boomer 3045.

      If we have some nice ice or packy snow there will likely be a donut video featuring this tractor as the CVT's high acceleration potential and the somewhat worn R4 industrial tires on this machine make for the ability to rotate on center mass like a skid-steer or a WRX πŸ˜‰

      I will probably be replacing the tires with new R14s in the spring, as these have pretty rounded tread.

      I like big boost and I cannot lie.

          @forsweden We have added "OK" in adhesive vinyl letters to the decal on the back of the cab.

                @jawzx2 Neat. I'll have to leave the Pajero outside some "cold" night and do a cold start video of it. Granted, the coldest mornings in the Southern NM lowlands would be in the lower 20s unless something unusual is happening.

                  @dogisbadob Many blinken lightsen. The MKII dash from 2013-2018 actually got more analog (fuel and temp) and less blinken, and the new version of these, now running a 2.5l Fiat Power 3cyl gets even less bling, despite being a fully computer controlled tier-iv engine with common rail electronic injection, DEF and regen (the Shibaura N844L is a mechanically injected engine with old-school diesel catalyst and no EGR, the transmission computer for the CVT doesn't even have a throttle servo, the engine pretty much lives in it's own world and the CVT gets to know RPM and has a torque sensor on the trans input shaft for the anti-stall, but that's all). I mean, I guess the color multi-function LCD in the new ones is "fancy" but it's much less shouty than the old, lower-resolution mono LCD and alpha-numeric sub-displays.

                        It's a good one too, as soon as the temp gauge is off the bottom tick it starts blowing warm and by the time it's at normal operating temp --which is pretty quick, Shubaura/NH have a well designed cooling loop in this application-- it'll heat that cab up like a sauna and you have to turn the temp down or risk roasting yourself to death.
