Paste Pic..... http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2004-9/830706/IM000920.JPG ................................I'm starting a handyman service. Bought this 2000 Bobcat 863G High-Flow, w/ 860hrs for $15,625.oo May 9th. It was in Spokane WA. 300 miles away from where I live near Puyallup WA. The old 86 F350 6.9 diesel w/ the 3k pound trailer got 13.25 MPG going over there empty she gets 18. On the way back I stopped off at the truck scales and she grossed 17,700 LBS & I got 10.25 MPG. I guess that's not all to bad for a Little 200 HP diesel. Fuel cost $145.00. Now I need to start fabricating the attachments I need for it. Or improvise/modify used farming attachments. Bobcat brand or copy cat attachments just cost too much............................................ The thing that sucks is I just made more work for myself & now I'm broke................................... .............................................................This is my first very own tractor/Bobcat. But I grew up on a farm and worked construction off & on over the years so running her will/should be second nature. ...........................................................I tried posting the picture in Media photos under RS Coyote but would not work.

Sounds like a great purchase. Shouldn't be long and people will find out you have a Bobcat and the work and money will start rolling in.
