[QUOTE="Devon, post: 6619, member: 881"] Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum and think that it is just unreal. It's great to see everyone helping each other out. I'm thinking about starting up a weekend bobcat service here in Saskatchewan and have a couple questions. #1. I know this is a very open ended question but, roughly how much fuel does a mid to large size diesel skid steer use per hour or per 8hour shift running at near full throttle doing regular bucket work? #2. Also what kind of weekly or monthly operating costs are associated with a full time bobcat service (on a newer solid machine, just for the skid steer itself, not talking about transportation costs, insurance, or anything like that) ? Thanks for any feedback! --Devon [/QUOTE]
