Subject: RE: Easiest skid loader to get in and out of


coast of Maine
The absolute easiest was a Bobcat 600,no ROPS.Came standard without one.You just stood up and got out.I was about 10 driving them daily.Neighbor died in a tractor roll over,,Mom made dad buy a ROPS for them.Good thing cause I rolled them more than once. The cost is one reason that it makes no sense for us to use an articulated loader.We need /use two Bobcats at the main farm,bought them cheap.If you have 2 articulated loaders setting around it really adds to the costs.Maybe 4 x the cost.There is a heck of a difference in how different builders skid loaders operate ,,try as many as you can in a real world job.
