Anyone know where to find videos of the CT225 , 230 or 235 in action other than the bobcat videos that come up on youtube? It would be nice to see these machines in action using some of the implements I mentioned in my original post...tiller, brush hog, etc. I can't find anything online from bobcat owners posting their use of their machines.

There really aren't many, certainly none to help you with the decision between the three. All i can say is that I've had a CT235 for about two weeks and there's no way i'd sell back the extra horsepower at what the sticker shows, and if I could buy more at the going rate, I would. Unfortunately the only way to really do that in the Bobcat line is to step up to the CT4xx series, which begins to become too physically large for me to use in many of my applications (working in dense woods).
Honestly if you're shopping around a budget, I'd say pick up used implements and apply the savings to the extra horsepower.
So far i've bought:
Rotary Cutter: Bobcat list - $1450, I paid $650 for a next to new Howse
Box blade: Bobcat list - $776, I paid $450 for what turned out to be a ~$2K Gannon
Finish Mower: Bobcat list - $2317 (lol), i paid $400 for a beat up KingKutter that works great
Not sure if that helps, good luck with the decision!

Hi Rick, I have been meaning to give you a call. I am about 1/2 hour from binghamton which puts me at about 1 1/2 hours from you, not too bad but will have to set something up with you since I am one of those weekend warriors! I'll give you a call sometime this week so we can talk pricing and test drive!
