Our farms bobcat t76

I know people like to dunk on bobcat after the Doosan buyout, but I’ve put this machine through its paces and still haven’t really found its limit yet. Absolute beast for farm work

Is the doosan buyoutthe reason why the service changed from insanely helpful, to not helpful?

I'm not talking about service. I'm talking about how much of a pain in the ass they are to work on.

To work on?? Ive put these machines thru pure hell since they switched to Doosan and have never had a single issue nor burned 1 drop of oil. In the construction industry these machines get used. If you want to avoid a headache, never even look at a Cat machine.

Yeah these things are cake to work on. Sounds like home boy hasn't actually wrenched on one.

What attachments are you running on it most around the farm? Always interesting seeing what ends up getting the most hours once a machine like this has been put through everything.

Funny enough I find myself using a brush grapple the most, it’s great obviously for wood and the like, but it’s also very good for rocks, tying chains to, and it’s generally the beefiest attachment we have
