[QUOTE="Spur45, post: 42374, member: 5387"] Great forum, but I wish there were some stickies for us newbs. Don't like bothering y'all with these kind of questions that you've probably answered a million times. But here goes. I'm looking to buy a skidsteer. I own a ranch in the Texas Panhandle. Contrary to popular belief, not all of the panhandle is flat. My ranch is rough country, with lots of canyons, creeks, rocks, and hills, so a wheeled skidsteer is probably what I'll be looking for. I'd like a skidsteer because I could use it in places where my big JD tractor is a pain to operate. I imagine running a grubber, auger, bucket, and blade. Small road repairs, fixing fence, small-scale mesquite clearing, etc. Looking to spend about 10k for a used machine plus extra for the attachments. Want something simple and easy to work on. I like doing my own maintenance. Any advice on what models I should be looking for? I'd like to arm myself with some knowledge before I make the rounds at the dealers. Thanks for any help. [/QUOTE]
