    Lmao! I love the sound effects! Just that grapple alone is worth having the machine. MOAR! ;-)

      Yeah it was a fun little jaunt in the woods I ended up clearing another six or eight trees I might do a part 2! But that grapple is going to be sweet!

      Well the problem with the tractor is its really tight spacing in there. Also if the tractor has the bush hog behind it that's 10 times worse then you can't maneuver at all in there. So the nimbleness of the skid steer is a huge Advantage. Thanks

    No but it gives you an idea, it doesn't look any wider than the tracks. Jenkins did recommend the 86 though.

    Given the chance to, if i had a compact beast like that Bobcat, i'd spend all day out in the shrubbery, just fudging about, clearing, plaining, digging etc etc. I mean, they have an attatchement for pretty much any heap of trouble you'd get yourself into while out in the field/forest, you name it. I love those skid steers.

    Man I love to see a family like you for when you buy something you use it to it’s full potential, I’m not sure if you may know this guy on RUclips his name is Winston diesel and all of the equipment he buys he basically destroys it for fun and for RUclips, now I’m a big fan of RUclips but I just really don’t like those kinds of people who buy brand new cars and trucks and equipment and then they go and destroy the things it just makes me mad. But to see you guys who buys a new piece of equipment and you take care of it and you use it how it should be used! Thanks you and have a great week!

    Careful with those hoses. I put 90° fittings at the machine. That way they point down the arm to the hinges. I ripped one off the second time I used it with the cover for the cylinder.

    Well thank God you finally bought a skid steer, I said you should jump over eight tractors to get to one skid steer all along. Tract loaders are the greatest tools on a farm with all the attachments available today. Tractors are great you need one for bush hogs and such. With all the new equipment tell me the truth which lottery did you win?

    • @kapperoutdoors
      @kapperoutdoors  4 года назад

      No Lottery here man just robbing Peter to pay Paul and really finagling. I picked up a huge new payment on the skid steer but like I said I refinanced our land and we saved 800 a month on the new loan. Just keep plowing ahead because life is short that's all.
