new yesterday

New GC2610 TLB I can't find the thread where I was asked for pics when the machine arrived so picked here. Pic shows the first scoop of the loader while getting some advice from the dealer. Don't have any other attachments yet as I want to try the bucket for snow removal before I spend more money on an already expensive toy.

maybe spend 3 or 4 consecutive hours with the seat spun around running the backhoe... the toy idea will wear off pretty quick.

Even without the seat spun around, you'll find out quickly that it's far from a toy.
Pick up some implements, you're gonna love it.
Congrats on the new machine.

Today is day three, and at 3 hours I put the first dent in it. Dropped a piece of firewood off the loader onto the hood. It's not much more than a scratch, but now that it's been christened I can ignore any more. Now at 4 hours and made a start on moving a pile of gravel the size of my house. I'm surprised that I don't need the hoe to loosen the gravel pile that has been sitting for at least 4 years. It's going to take a long time to dig the foundation for my new shop but I'm now completely confident that it can do it.

You will find all sorts of things to so with your GC. Tractors should save you time but mine seems to create more work..

Be careful with those "roll backs" over the loader. If you get a decent log lifted too high you could get a very heavy wake up call in your lap.
