I live in the city , but farm life has always attracted me even though I know it's a lot of work and basically being consistent with work .... this why I enjoy ur videos ..... it's awesome to learn new things and to watch all them cows .... thank you for your channel
sal cortez a good experience to gain i would trade in mu simple warehouse work life for farming ik its tehn times more work but freedom and air is what i want . also to gain experience on tractors.
I love our gehl. all hand controls + foot throttle. all the bucket controls on one stick. and the driving controls on the other
+Kyle Ackley That's called ISO pattern it is by far the most efficent pattern to use
Ryan I have rented one of these for a day and loved it. I love the hand controls it just takes time to get used to.
I miss the time I use to spend with my dad. Enjoy the time you have with him.
Our bobcat has the case style controls which is what those controls are and we love them. Never tried foot controls being in a wheelchair but the hand controls are fairly easy to get used to.
we have a 751 bobcat and bought a cat 246c which has the hand controls, took awhile to get used too, but u really like them. we kept the old bobcat, great having two machines
+Sowerscattleco Best way to go
I would agree with onelonelyfarmer on the track machine. As far as John Deere itself I am the public works director for the town of green mountain falls, Colorado. We own a 2012 323d John Deere skid steer for the last couple years and have no complaints. We use it for everything from snow removal to working on our 6 plus miles of gravel roads. Great machine, can't go wrong with either machine tracks or rubber tire.
we have 8 Deere's. Couldn't be happier with them. Any of them past the 317's series is pretty much bullet proof. I'm even posting this comment in a 318E
My boss owns a 320d, we use that thing for everything, nice to have a skid steer around.
So handy around the farm we bought a new case 1845C In 2000 and we like it for cleaning out the barn yards and loading the manure spreader
I own a case 1845c 1968 and it has been to the shop once since I have owened it and I bought it 15 years ago I don't know how many hours it has because the hour Gage broke but I work on a cattle farm and the machine is wonderful
We like our Deere skid loader, we use it for every thing from cleaning up the lot to picking up rocks out of the field
I have a set of steel tracks for my wheeled JD 320 skid, here in FL.
They work great when it gets squishy around here, and not too hard to remove them. Remove 2 bolts in each track & drive away. Putting them back on is a little harder by yourself.
we have a case and I love the hand controls over the foot controls of bobcat
we run a bobcat a300 with pilot controls. love them and the machine. the all wheel steer option is nice too.
We run a case 1840, it's 50 odd hp, and it's biggest fault is it isn't heavy enough, tons of power, tips forward with a heavy bale.
you guys should look into a mini loader they are awesome super comfortable to drive and operate great visibility great turning
You should try switching to "ISO" controls, left stick does all your steering and right stick is the bucket controls, much faster and easier to run. I learned in machines with foot controls and was apprehensive about switching to joysticks but I liked them better immediately. You should also check out the new Bobcats, they've made everything easily accessible for maintenance and have the best protection around the auxiliary hydraulic lines, I currently use a T650 and an S650.
We just got an L228 just like the one yer vid, super nice! big upgrade from our old LX865! Get the machine that fits your needs, NH has been getting a bad rap lately, but that’s most behind them, but a JD and CAT are great machines, if weren’t getting a NH it would most likely be one of the latter!
Now I am hungry for a beef stick!
we've got a John Deere 318d it's a wonderful skidloader. it is our only loader on the farm
it's good you all have a say on buying it.
i would suggest looking at wheel loaders as well. we had a jd 250 skid steer at work, when we upgraded to the jd 244k wheel loader it was such an improvement. we actually load faster with the 244 than we did with the 250. i liked the wheel loader so much better that i bought a kubota r420 instead of a skid steer for around my farm. i have a few vids on my channel of the wheel loaders you should check them out.
Once you decide on which machine is the best deal you will not regret having two skidsteers. My advice is get one bigger than your 773 then you can be more versatile.
I would look into a jcb skid loader. I had the pleasure to run one the other day and I like it better than our case.
I personally would go with bobcat again only because from my experience of using all kinds of skid steers for 8 years you just can't beat the performance of a bobcat compared to other loaders, I own a t300 , s650 and a 743 and I think you Travis and your dad would also love a t300
The harvest crew I ran with had a 326D. Best skid steer you can find.
The way that theres is set up is the left stick controls forward, back, and turning, while the right is bucket pitch and raise/lower.
we have had two gehls loved them, now we are on our second deere, we had a 326d now we got a 326e. One thing about deere they are a heavy machine, seems like we get stuck easier with them and when we are picking rock in the field with the deere, seems like you don't have enough hp in loose dirt.
The hand controls are very nice. Way better than foot controls. Just switch it to ISO rather than H pattern. You'll like it a lot better
Nice! and i cant wait to see another skid steer on the farm!
have you folks checked over the Volvo, excellent side entry, love my machine, not as much as my wife tho but yeah its a gem
I like how you say we when you dad is the boss in all fairness lol
We got a 320d and a 328d at work. They are nice.
Love your videos,
.have a Deere 320d here the electric motor on bucket quick tach twice.its non rebuildable and over 900$ have since took it off and latch buckets manually
Hand controls are really nice we have 3 skid steers on the farm I work at and 2 of them have hand controls.
We have a 318d and like it pretty good except when it comes to winter there a pain to start and we have preheater on it. Use should definitely consider going to E series instead which start much better and more reliable!
My uncle has a new holland l175 great skidsteer I ran it a few times I think it's great
I agree, iv ran an l 220 for a couple month n live it
A little advice. Swing out doors suck. The boom has to be all the way down or up to open it. Getting out of it with the boom half way up or down can be a problem. If you have a Kubota dealer in your area and you don't mind tracks. See if they have any used SVL90's.
get the track machine you will never regret that
+onelonleyfarmer I was thinking the same thing, if your gunna have two, why not have one of each.
My uncle said he hade one with tires and ever since he's hade the tracked one he said he hade no regrets what so ever.
The reason we wouldn't want a track machine is because I (Travis) would use it as a bulldozer and end up tearing out buildings, fences, and tree lines. plus anything else I feel needs to get torn down.
+Intars Kažus He put up a new video yesterday telling us about the expensive repair job on his skid steer.
+Intars Kažus You're sure welcome Intars.
I'd be interested in how you develop your strategy of what equipment you need and how it fits into your general operation............I enjoy watching your vids and I also enjoy another popular channel on farming. You folks appear to be quite methodical in your planning. Can't say the same for the other channel.............
I own a millionth edition bobcat t650. MSRP 70k. I got it for 50 and they threw in a beast of a bri-mar trailer a bucket w/ teeth and I bought a jackhammer normally 8k for 5k and a snowblower attachment. the millionth t650 is like a rocket ship you don't feel bumps no dirt gets in the cab since the cab is pressurized it's got real quick tach bunch of screens with gadgets and gizmos up top. suspension seat literally the lambo of skid steers. chrome exhaust there's diamond plating on it. not 1 problem with it and I had it for a year so far.
I'm a Deere man, but when it comes to Skid Loaders Bobcat hands down.
FINALLY SOMEONE AGREES WITH ME!!!!!
Seriously get one with tracks. They have travel speeds just about on par as ones with tires and they handle terrain better and they're more stable carrying loads across uneven ground.
hand controls are great once your used to them. Why not get a tracked machine? They are a much smoother to operate no bounce like on a wheeled machine and more lift.
Did you look at the track machine next to it? I guess the question is, did you buy it? How do you like it compared to the Bobcat?
John Deere -------> Made in USA / Owned in USA.
Bobcat now owned and operated by Korean company !
I sold Bobcat's back when they were USA owned & operated.
Jim Listerman Bobcat still built in North Dakota!
Made In USA.....Owned by Doosan (Korea).
Jim Listerman bobcat is usa. Headquarters and where they are built is USA the only thing with Korea is their parents company DOOSAN. But bobcat independently operates from it self doosan knows bobcat knows that they are doing that's why they sell more than cat kubota case new Holland and deere combined. bobcat is the first skid steer all American parts built by hand. deere uses foreign parts and alot of robots. bobcat is superior in every way. bobcat has a pressurized cab. alot quieter than deere inside and the bobcat I have you don't even feel bumps.
Korean ownership is NOT the same as USA ownership.
Bobcat has greater market share based on dealer network
And, more years in the business. Not superior any longer.
I worked @ Ohio's largest dealer. Have you sold Bobcat's ?
I own bobcats and I'm friends with the owner of the largest dealer of bobcats in the north east. Bobcat independently operates it self. Doosan doesn't over see it. They just merely own them as a subsidiary. I would bet you anything that a bobcat would out perform in any test against another manufacturer.
Hand controls are the best when we are out moving snow all night or in the machine for long periods of time it saves your knees big time
Get the same controls the other machine has if your gunna keep the old machine. Matching controls works best. You are on the right track, make sure you try out three or four different brands with the same controls as your old skidsteer. Every manufacture has its benefits. Also do your spec numbers before you go look and a machine so you can compare. I just bought a 226d cat and I tried out four other machines from different manufactures. and cat was slightly ahead of the rest. but I liked the Gehl, John Deere, Case, and Wacker . Cat had the best financing and spec numbers for my needs
I've driven that same machine. Lol love that dealership
I think if you buy this particular machine you will get to the point where you love those hand controls. my family has them on our Case machine and we love the hand controls. also what about the bobcat s205 you showed in a previous video could you buy that one
theres a switch in the cab you can change the controls to "ISO" pattern which is a lot better for hand controls
JD is known for their drive motors/planetaries going out if you don't stay on top of the fluid. That's got almost 3000 hours; did the previous owner do this?
I'd kill to have one skid steer!!
I have the John Deere 333 D and it's the best thing ever invented
I do love the john deere skid steers but after i ran a JCB skid steer i couldn't go back specially with the side entrance on it.
I don't know about JCB, there specs are way low compared to the others. small engines, low hydraulics and heavy. But they do look like quality is a high and each machine is well thought out.
ya i agree with that but i find it safer and easier to to get out if you have to get out with your bucket lifted like with an auger or something big on its forks.
We have the worst dealer support for JCB here but they make some nice loaders for silage
bodenstiner implements John deere in Decorah Iowa might have a skidsteer you guys might be interested in
How easy is it to remove the door and plastiglass ? Very nice to have when its too hot or too cold.....but for some jobs I am the "spotter" for when I use my simple 553 bobcat for much more than using dirt. For example I move full logs and cut logs using a grapple hook...for the driver to hear my directions is an important thing.
john deere is definitely the way to go especially with those controls. don't get one with drive on one stick and loader on the other stick those controls suck but the split ones are great
You guys didn't try out the tracked one sitting beside the one you were looking at?
I think you'd like a 100-130hp tractor with a loader better, that way you can run to the field with the bale trailer to pick up bales, and use it as a raking/mowing/baking tractor or whatever else you needed Just my two sense from a Michigan Farmer
if you have a jcb dealer close try one of those I really like mine,, great machine and the side door is the bestI live 3 hours north of you and have a dealer real closethanks for the videos
tractortamno1 same as a Volvo
It's electric over hydraulic controls, should be able to adjust what each stick does. Last one I drove, left hand was bucket controls and right was drive.
+Jerome Miller You can switch the patterns between H pattern (the one they are using) and ISO which is like what you decribed. IMO the ISO pattern is way better
we only run gehl on our farm they work exelent for us and there tough skid steers and very reliable
Wise words from a wise man "learn how to live with it"
Get a track skid steer because I work with my dad and it is really helpful
Myself, I really like Deere's skid loader. I've run Bobcat, New Holland, and Case. I always found those three to be kinda jerky versus the Deere. Just my 2 cents. Onelonleyfarmer has a 332 Deere that he seems to love.
+ih1206 With a straight pipe and fried electronics lol
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
that wasn't Deere's fault??
NewDeereMan Fried electronics? No that was thunder.
You guys should look into a telehandler
the 323d next to it is a got machine my farm has one we love it
have you guys considered Kubota? Are you strictly deere?
really curious why you didn't take a look at the tracked version or a JCB if ur lookin
the extra $
We have one and we love it
The last scene of the video looked like the Yalta Conference.
You should look at case skid steers too
My opinion the only good case skids are the xt series. Stay far away from the sr and sv machines, they just aren't dependable and a pain to work on. I'm a mechanic for a dairy farm and we've put 10,000 hours on two 75xt case skid steers with some expected repairs. Our sv250 on the other hand is in my shop all the time and it only has 5000 hours
one thing about farmers if you looking you going to but might not this year the next never fails oh well that a life of a farmer.
Good choice!
It's nice picking up a new piece of equipment when you need it. But it sure stinks spending all that money!! That always ruins the excitement of the new tool for me, at least for a week or so!! All the best.....Darryl, AML.
At work we have alot of skidsteers the newer ones with tracks are much nicer I think . I have been running these things since the early 80's. The newer the machines (with wheels) the touchier they seem to be . most of the guys can get used to them I can't.
I suggest a tracked machine with iso controls, they're effortless to run
we have 3 gehls, so easy to operate
We have a newholland 160 with foot control for the boom and bucket
You should get a bobcat if your going to get a skid steer. They r a little more but well worth the money
You know what you are talking about. A cat would be awful. bobcat is the best period
Nice Bob cat bro
Did you guys ever buy a new loader?
i just bought a gehl r135 i just like driving it i was looking at a new holland but i heard that the newer new hollands have bad motors in them.
I use Gehl, so foot controls would be hard for me.
onelonleyfarmer just fried his skidsteer, you maybe interested?
Why not get another(newer) bobcat since your used to bobcat controls?
look into cat they by far have the best skid steer in my opinion I've ran every one around other than kabota and I like the cat the best
+mason phillips Agreed.
My father is the same owned 3 bobcats then a case ct450 then one Deere 332 which was garbage for some reason now it's sweet ass cat 299 and she's a Cadillac
Bobcats are the best cats are bad
Kabota has the best ergonomics
we have one with tracs and i like it good for everyday but i dont like the hand controls ether i rather have feet control for the loader
I would want a grapple with it. The handiest think you can have dealing with brush etc.
Leaky water pump replaced also,evidently its common issue
1 get something with tracks 2 suggest a cat 277c or similar i love mine i like John deere but their is no comparison on hp and versatility
If that's jerky, I want one! :)
ran cat,bobcat and case love the case and have drove a John deere once you learn hand controls are easier on our case at work than bobcat
what about bobcat did they have anything that you 3 liked
you were like 10 min from me! we've bought a few tractors from there :)

You will not be disappointed with the Deere they are the most reliable ones we have run and if you have a problem you can rely on Deeres service
Just my two cents but we have a 326D wheeled machine and a 323D track machine and both with 1500 or less hours and they are nothing compared to a bobcat. Both machines have been a mechanical nightmare. We have 7 other skid steers, 5 of which are bobcats and 2 case and those machines beat the Deere's hands down. One case has 21,000 hours on it, all the rest are 8500+ hours and flawless machines.
That's funny because we use a 323D and it works like a charm
where did u go what is the name of that John Deere company u went to
Volvo and JCB with one lift arm and side door looks nice and safe!?
/Swede
Should take a look at the track
