FYI: The 743 Bobcat is especially popular because it is (I believe) the last Bobcat made that has an inline engine that couples directly to the pump, instead of that stupid troublesome belt-drive setup they have on all the newer Bobcats. While certain parts of the engine can be harder to work on for that reason, they are VERY dependable and hold their resale value like a farmer-owned 84 Chevy pickup.......and who ever saw anything a farmer owned that depreciated?!!!!! And they'll NEVER blow a drive belt because they don't have one! A 743 Bobcat is the perfect machine for any homeowner or farmer, who just wants to move some snow, poop, or do some dirt work around his place..........so long as it doesn't weigh more than 1000 pounds. And another thing that's good about it is that you can carry one on a 7000 GVW car trailer because they only weigh in at about 4500 pounds or so. But back it on, because if you don't, you're probably gonna be looking at the clouds!!! Been there and done that!!! I can't wait for my first delivery of those $3500 743's from Bobcatdan!!!!!!!!</p></blockquote><p></p>
