New LS Skid Steer

[4570Man]

I would say that all depends on what you are doing,
loading feed trucks and wagons, stacking round bales and such,
normal farm work skidsteers are not the best many times.
And the ones that get run in barns scrapping manure talk about a maintenance headache.

And they’re not farm tools, they’re construction tools. One of my buddies has a mini loader on his farm. It works great for loading stuff and it’s primary job is loading produce bins on trucks. It’s useless for dirt work.

Is that construction or destruction?
Oh well time for me to get going and try and do something constructive,
have a good day :thumbsup:

They’re pretty good at both. Like I said I don’t have one for several reasons and bought a TLB instead but they’re amazing tools in the right application.

I like Kubota's, but Cat has some really nice stuff again now too. The new D3 series with Smart Attachments.

I can’t say that I ever gave Cat a solid looking over. The outrage cost of tracks and rollers was enough for me. And that skid steer backhoe really reminds me how much more efficient skids are vs a TLB.
