I use the Bobcat for my 2-3 acres to spread and grade an 800 meter gravel driveway. Little bit of digging and small stump removal. Move snow piles around home when my truck or atv plow can't move them anymore. Also, i'll be doing a little bit of (3-5 contracts, townhouse, supermarket type lots) snow stacking and helping out a buddy who plows. I can only afford 1 bucket. Need some advice wading through all the options out there. Snow bucket probably wont work for my day to day stuff around the house. Top of my list right now is the 74 inch Bobcat brand low profile bucket. (will this work for snow?) My dealer is asking about $1000 plus $350 for a bolt on cutting edge. I dont know anything about cutting edge, and i'll probably only run the machine 50-100 hours a year. Do i need a bolt on edge? Do i need heavy duty? What is a construction bucket? Is there a better aftermarket brand i should consider? thanks</p></blockquote><p></p>
