Slow loading cycles. If you work in the open, on the flat, with no people around you and operational accuracy or speed isn't important, the Tak is fine. Put you around people, in tight spaces, next to a cliff, on steep grades with fragile loads and you wish you were driving something else. The Tak has more power, but you can't use it, so it just means higher fuel consumption. Bobcat: Better visibility where it counts than the Tak (though vis has diminished over time, no matter what the brochure says); poor operational accuracy and slow cycles (a little better than Tak) with joysticks. Very good accuracy and probably the best cycle times with conventional sticks.</p></blockquote><p></p>
