  • Which one? 2019 JCB Teleskid or a 2003 John Deere 270? Obviously comparing these two isn't really fair with 16 more years of innovation being on JBS's side. So with that in mind this look into the differences between the two machines is purely on function and capability.
    Special thanks to JCB & Torgersons for this opportunity to run this Teleskid.

    We have a bobcat S175. I believe that we bought it brand new in 2004 or 2005. I would for sure go with tracks instead of wheels

    IDK if anyone else has said this and I am going to send feedback to JCB as well, but for the right sides blindside could have a small camera and monitor installed for safety compliance. Wouldn't be much of a cost compared to someone's life or well being.
    It could blink on when the boom covers the view on the right and turn back off when the boom is low or high enough to give the viewable area back to the operator.

    JCB Builds some great machines an you are correct they are definitely within the ballpark range we have had case, John Deere and JCB back holes.. I'm sorry to put it this way but you got the Chevy the Ford and the Cadillac.. JCB would be the Cadillac overall. Fact we totally wore out 1 JCB an we replaced it with another one identical. Dozers? Definitely a Cat like the salesman told me once you run a Cat you'll never go back. That's why the Cat will stay till I am gone. Skid steers? We had case ,JD , Bob cat .. we looked at a JCB but like you $$$$ talk an another Factor was parts and service... Bobcat is 30 minutes from the farm JCB it's three hours one way. As you well know , when a machine breaks down you need it back up right away not 2 days from now . So when we went to replace the skid steer the fourth one we went back to bobcat .Brother wanted to go JCB an I would have loved to but there's only so many dollars income a year. Personally I really like the one-arm coz let's face it you're in and out of a skid steer a thousand times a day But I do have one question though.. I know they off setted the cab to keep the boom weight more towards the center of gravity of the machine how ever my question is when carrying a "heavy" load say 3 feet off the ground do you notice any say weight shift to the right side of the machine drive tires??? also? In slippery muddy conditions, does the machine want to tend to lead to the right? .but overall?? I can see the JBC setting in my driveway over the bobcat. But I'm your dad's age an I still love the mechanical linkage for tedious fine work.. but thanks for a great unbiased comparison...(edit.) as a side note? On the Deere fine tweak the pump timing . We have found that to solve a lot of hard winter starts engine's ;-)

    Cat 259D here....In all truthfulness, this really shouldnt have been a comparison video...there really isnt a comparison between the two based solely on age. Outside of the tele portion, if you had a new Deere/Cat/Bobcat/Case/etc....the comparison would have been VERY similar

    Has anyone use or consider loader (non-steer) tractor(s)? Most newer model comes with changeable loader, plus it has 3pt and PTO uses. I just find that non-steer tractor has more functions, visibility, and stable.

    Before you buy something, you owe it to yourself to demo a tracked machine..... I love tracks. Now, I'm not saying tracks are for you, but I'd definitely check it out, before I dropped that kinda cash....
    Great video though. Very fair analysis...
    Great reminder for everyone, too, in all situations... If you are on foot, in an area where machines are running around, keep your head on a swivel, and stay alert.... Expect the unexpected. The operator, is going to be thinking real hard about their load, and where they are going... It's just human nature... Sure, they are supposed to be watching, but hey... Don't be wandering that area on foot looking at your phone... Pay attention....

    JCB: Lack of visibility with boom part way up: >> I'd put a camera on the back, outside area looking past the arm toward the right front. That way, you will have visibility using a monitor in the cab. AND, maybe a camera looking out back so you can see what's behind you, too. Just sayin …..

      Gerrit Stok Hi Gerrit. I have heard it mentioned a few times and it’s been fed back to the product teams for investigation. The other improvement would be to add a grill to the right side window to allow easier communication with anyone working alongside the machine. Obviously can’t be a window to avoid getting arms trapped by the boom.

    We have a 2011 John Deere 323D skid steer. It’s a track machine with foot controls. Yesterday I was driving it down the road and was turning into the driveway and heard a pop and lost steering on the left side. Next thing I know theres hydraulic oil all over the highway and then the tracks locked up. Got halfway off the highway. Luckily we have a D6 dozer and we used it to pull it off the highway. It was a mess.

    When I was shopping for a skid loader, I was focused on Bobcat, back in my day. I tried the 743, but it really felt lacking and I didn't like that it was all it could do to load a 15 yd. dump truck. I then tried the 7753 and it was night and day for me. High lift arms made side-loading the large trucks a lot easier and it had a wider stance. I had a 72" bucket with removable tooth bar, forks and a landscaper attachment. That there was an amazing implement! This was back in the early 90s and I bought the 7753, used, with 1400 hours on it and immediately put new tires on it and then had them solid rubber filled. At $100 per tire, that was a major money saver when working around thorny trees or demolition duty on jobsites. I would get my job done and come away from the site with my tires looking like a porcupine - but obviously NO flats! It's no fun having a flat and paying for a service truck and the down time. Rubber-filled was definitely the way to go for me.

    Is this right? 3 different families on the same place? I love my family but could never live that close to them.
    My parents have a 97 Bobcat 751 they bought new. For them on an acreage it works great. Even compared to your JD it would be hard comparing them. But very low hours on that one. Probably double+ to get one comparable to it now, and trade in would be low.

    It's truly a shame that you had to pass on the JCB but economics are economics. That being said, if I knew I wasn't going to be able to afford a purchase I would not invest the time & effort into something that I could not have. It leads to nothing but frustration for all parties and I, for one, am not willing to go through that.

    The only problem with the JCB (and i know this for a fact, having seen ours nearly tip over a few weeks ago) is that despite their best efforts (there's some really clever engineering in that unit) it's skewed towards the arm side, in terms of weight or better said, balance. Makes our operator a bit nervous "walking" edges or moving stuff on inclined terrain.
    We're prolly going to add a few weights on the other side.

    I've ran a Deere, Bobcat and a tracked Cat, and the Deere is noticeably louder than the Bobcats. The Bobcat A300 I ran was two seed, but it could switch steering modes. It could skid steer or four wheel steer which kept you from tearing up lawns or scuffing up fancy concrete sidewalks. Of the three the Bobcat was so much nicer and while the Cat was solid, it was a single speed and slower than any of the others even if they were in slow speed.
    The thing that makes them so pricey is they can replace a dozen or more dedicated machines for small jobs. They pretty much make an attachment to do nearly anything. The company building our new shop used a big tracked Bobcat with a road grader attachment and graded the gravel inside the building's foundation after the steel supports and roof had gone up. That zero turn radius just makes them so much better in confined spaces.

    Would love to have a skid steer, but we just don't have enough use for one. We have a 5085E with pallet forks we use to pick up pallets. Every couple weeks we bring in a ton of cattle feed and have no problem picking it up. It is a two person job though, because the visibility is not very good on the loader. The only piece of construction equipment on our farm is a John Deere 17G excavator. We use it for digging trenches, ditches, leveling ground, putting in culverts. Man it is a great machine.
