I have an 8year old boy and 9 year old girl. They both want to drive the skid steer. The other day my boy loaded the manure spreader with shavings all by himself. He is very careful (slow) while in the skid steer but he will get faster as time goes by. I look forward to the help. I imagine by the time my kids are 11 or 12 the will be experts on the skid steer and pretty good on the M9000. I look forward to having the extra help. When my chicken farms previous owners’ son was 12 the owner took at trucking job and left the boy to manage the farm. He was 16 when we bought the farm and when I would ask the owner questions about the farm he would have to turn and ask his boy. That was the most mature kid I’ve ever been around. The boy was the one who taught us how to run the ranch.
