When was that and what kind of features did he get on it?

Dad called the Kubota dealership and they told him 17,000 for an RTV1100 with only standard equipment. That was a year or two ago though.

Hmm. I didn't think open station RTVs were that expensive.

The only downfall of the RTV is that it costs more than a 7.3 PSD does right now.
