Great video, I will be receiving 270t next week. You would be smart to order one. Another update for 2023 . Touch screen, larger front window especially at top, better visibility to bucket when raised, back lit switches moved to pillars, can control joysticks settings now with touch screen. I have owned Bobcats since 2001. Love the jcb cab
I saw that too! Pretty excited about the new updates. I ragged on Kubota pretty good in the video, but I guess they also did some updating of that machine too.
that's a great choice and it's got a safety advantage over the rest with the side entrance and having the wider tracks helps with the flotation and stability as well as they don't tear up the ground as much as wheels, regarding the information screen that model is a few years old now so it will probably get an update when JCB puts out a new model. i can't see why you can't get it built up the way you want. The case machines has a pin number that you have to put in every time you start it so they all have some number of steps
Great real world look at the machine, I think for farm use it's better than anything else by mile. I personally had to rule it out due to ground clearance, it has the least in the industry and where I work in the woods where almost nothing is flat I need the ground clearance to not high center or drop a track into a hole and be sitting on the underbelly with tracks in the air. I'm still a fan of the design.
How do you like the machine a year later? I’m really leaning towards this one because the versatility for the money. I also would like the forestry and a rock and stump claw HD, mulching head and of course a bucket.
kids safety start? .... After your video they have updated the cab dash. Touch screen, larger front window especially at top , joysticks are now adjustable from touch screen.
Mmmm, I don't think I talked to a Ted. I called the stockton store. I talked to a guy and we discussed the machines and I told him I wanted to come see one. He said he'd find one and let me know. Never called back, I called him to check and never got a response from my 2nd call, so out CAT went
It’s a shame , I’m a heavy equipment operator and I love CAT for the construction side , we bought a used backhoe from them and that went okay as far as the buying experience . But then when interested in a new 420 backhoe recently we got no replies , called back and they forgot who we are . Just sad the customer service is like that for a 160 grand machine ! The service however is great and the mobile mechanic repair side of it beats any other brand . And the best part is there drop boxes for parts are everywhere and usually next day they have them in Oakdale Escalon French camp all over so if u need parts it’s convenient

2023 models have touch screen
Bought one 2 weeks ago. I really like it. Got a grapple and am so far really enjoying it.
Good to hear!
Also, meant to say really like your channel!

I hope they fixed door hinges and bucket auto close
Forestry package would be installed at dealer.
Nice machine there. Im sure it must be useful to have a telescopic arm👍
I sure think it is!
How is it now?
