[QUOTE="Polarpower, post: 294097, member: 4773"] Some good comments already made. Just wanted to add that of all the brands out there, Bobcat is the ONLY one that is designed and manufactured right here in North Dakota. I also believe that in general, the Bobcat dealership network and support is the best in the business. And you'll also have a tough time finding a brand that holds it's resale value better. A later-model year T190 would treat you well, but a decent one is going to be priced higher than what you're looking to spend. High flow hydraulics are not needed for the needs you stated. However, high flow will make the machine more appealing to more buyers if and when you want to sell. And while it's not impossible to add on, it's not a fun project. If you can do without tracks, I would second the recommendation for an S175/S185/S205. Rock solid good performing machines! [/QUOTE]
