[QUOTE="500K_773, post: 87, member: 33"] If purchasing a new machine, I would recommend getting the Gold Package. This package includes many of Bobcat's favorite option such as Heated cab (with Airconditioning on S185 and larger), deluxe instrument panel, suspension seat, Bobcat Heavy-Duty tires, and my favorite, the Power Bobtach Mounting system. The heated/airconditioned cab is a necessity, IMHO, for all climates. I would not want to work without it in the winter time. In the summer, the airconditioning allow me to work longer without getting fatiqued and allow me to keep the door closed, which keeps dust and debris out of the cab. Visibility is not a problem with the curved windshield. The suspension seat also adds to operator comfort. The Power Bobtach is by far my favorite. I allow me to change attachments quickly without ever leaving the operators seat. If digging gets tough, just drop my low profile bucket and pickup my tooth bucket. I also push over trees when clearing land. I use my tooth bucket to cut the roots on one side of the tree then push the tree over. Drop the bucket and attach the forks, then pickup and move the whole tree. Not having to stop and get out to change attachments really helps increase my productivity. The deluxe instument panel offers increased security, by utilizing operator codes rather than a key. I also has a resetable job clock that I use to time jobs. There also seems to be additional functions available for hydraulically controlled attachments that I have not had the opportunity to use. Any machine I purchase in the future is definately going to have the Gold Package. [/QUOTE]
