    ...and I'm making a guess that you'll look into another TB153FR? I've noticed United Rentals has recently purchased several new TB153FR's...with cabs! Not normal for Washington. I would like to get in one and try one out.

    Bigkit, yes it is CWS. CWS makes great thumbs. I specifically like this thumb they make. I also like their buckets and couplers. PSM also makes a similar product and is also a very good company to look into. Their products looks similar to CWS. I actually had a PSM clean up bucket on in those...

    Here's the thumb on the hoe I use from time to time. I hate direct link thumbs. They're better than no thumb but a prog. linked thumb is so nice to have.
