RTV500 Review
By Tim (I am an Owner)Have had the 500 for 4 months. All stock except for the Kubota snow plow.
Size is perfect, not too big. Plows well, although the blade is too big and heavy for gravel. If you have a paved drive. It's perfect.
I've plowed 600 feet of road and numerous 100-200 ft driveways..No ... problem.
Kubota has this odd thing with having to let off the gas to increase power (downshift) with the VHT. This is counterintuitive and I really don't like this aspect. Just becuse they designed it that way doesn't make it right. Will have to get used to it I guess.
Wish it had more power..600-700CC
Other than that I do like it and would recommend it.
