Bobcat B100 turbo loader backhoe

[Ken in NJ]

Has anyone ever used or seen one of these ? http://southjersey.craigslist.org/grd/1003872585.html

I am SO close to buying it .. I am pretty sure I am going to call them and go see it tomorrow. (While the wife is in Florida for the day)

I have seen a few reviews online about them .. most were good ones.

It will be used fairly lightly here .. digging trenches (In sandy soil) hauling fire wood around.. and unloading skids of material from delivery trucks (nothing heavy ) Mostly light fixtures.

I may rent it out.. to people that I know who wont beat the crap out of it.

If anyone has any input on a machine like this one .. please let me know

I think its a good price too .. I have looked online and seen some selling for up to 16K

Thanks

He did e-mail me back and said he would take 10K for it .. but only in CASH .. :duh:

seems to be pretty strong and capable for it's size. as long as there's nothing wrong with it I'd say jump on it.

:sorry1: I dont know anything about them. Dont know if they are simuliar to a JD 2520 in specs. or a Kubota (fill in the number here)? Might try to find a Compact with loader/back hoe to compare it to, and remember a compact will be 4wd. Looks like the Bobcat is 2wd. :goodl:
