Hello. My name is Paul and at the ripe old age of 37 I bought my first skid steer, a CL30 Ford. She in pretty good shape, has a few small leaks here and there but she starts right up, no smoke, no "funny noises", the tires are just about shot but other than that not to shabby. I'm a local truck driver for a concrete company, have 3 kids, an old lady and a few dogs. I like to hunt, fish and play in my shop.

Welcome to the site, skid steers are a lot of fun, they also save you a lot of hard work.

Hi Paul. I'm new here as well. Really nice people here it seems. Congratulations on your new toy.
LOL...My wifes calls my JD 317 my toy but I am quick to correct her and tell her it is a tool.
She just laughs because she knows better.

I bet she doesn't complain when you do work for her with it :) The problem is, when you have gear that makes the job easier, you can do more, so more is expected...... Its a catch 22.
