Ah....im totally the opposite....i only ever open the front window when im on drainage when i need to talk to the guys on the ground and need to hear the things they are saying! Windows and doors stay firmly shut when loading muck away too! haha

Those little Hitachi's are excellent little machines although the one we own has had a very rough life and is very slow and cumbersome these days! Not helped by the "ops" not looking after it!

Im like you Joe never have the windows or door open it keeps dust out and makes the cab quieter.
