I have had a bobcat mini excavator for many years and it is or has been in my opinion an absolutely outstanding machine. It is a 2007 335 and I'm fixing to cross over 4,000 hours and would love love love to have the E60 R2 this is my favorite Machine by far! I'm so so curious to see how it turns out for you guys, hope it does great
Purchased a 2020 e50. R2. Slew ring gear failure at 160 hours. Very tippy machine, controls are terrible like on and off switch. No control, terrible for grading. Traded in toward takeuchi tb257fr. Smooth and stable machine. Love my Bobcat t595, t66, s76
Dang that's a horrible experience you had. What did they have to say about it? Was that your first Bobcat mini ex? What did you have before im curious!
You have to buy the debt check system it comes with 3 sensors and some other c*** but it's about 9 to 11000 dollars I have E50R2 series Had it for about 2 years now but I checked into the depth check system and it's pretty costly
I'm curious.. digging pools I'm constantly moving and resituating the machine at different elevations more than most operators I'd say. How would that effect the use of that system. I'm going to bring this up to my boss. I love the idea just don't know much about it! Thanks for your comment!
Bobcat makes the best small equipment, expecially the skid steers. Why not put the blade down? It’s so much more stable and less bouncy. It sucks to pull it up every time you move. Although I’ve always picked the front of the machine up with the bucket and moved. Saves from lifting the blade.
@@ExcavationNation oh alright thank you I’m 18 located in central Florida and I’m wanting to move to East Tennessee once I graduate in may by any chance do you have any friends in East Tennessee that would be hiring ?
@@ExcavationNation I’m not liking it anymore to be honest man just got tired of the same boring flat land and just doesn’t feel like the Florida I grew up knowing after covid hit
I feel you bro. You have family or anything? When I turned 22 I had that hair to started driving semi trucks. Took me till California until I forgot where I belong man. I wish you the best in your journey brother. Not all who wander are lost ❤️

They fixed under warranty then I traded in, had kubota kx040 before. Needed larger machine
Bobcat excavators are definitely fast , I believe to fast especially for grading
Whelp im glad you got it figured out how was bobcats customer service during all of this? Just so people know?
And you should subscribe!
I traded in my 435 fast track for the new E60. I love my new machine but i do miss the speed i had from the 435.
