[QUOTE="500K_773, post: 64, member: 33"] Nic, I think it is a great idea to start your own business. It especially looks more promising with such a large developement being built nearby. I would start with a skid steer loader if you where only buying one piece of equipment. The excavators have their place and can do a lot of work with the backfill blade, but cannot move material as far and efficiently as the skid steer. The skid steer also has a wider variety of attachments that you can purchase or rent. I looked at all the brands of skid steers before purchasing my Bobcat and have not had any regrets with my decision. My dealer is very supportive and has a wide variety of attachment available to rent. The local Case and Cat dealers have no where the amount of attachments as my Bobcat dealer. If you buy a skid steer, be sure to buy a set of pallet forks to go with it. In my opinion, you are not fully utilizing the machine without the forks. The forks are priceless when moving material such as logs, culvert, pallets, etc... Also be sure to get the power bobtach option, this allows fast, effortless switching of different buckets and forks. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
