Smarter Engineering: Bobcat vs Other Excavator Brands

[@lewiemcneely9143]

You can squawk different brands all day long but it's the PERSON IN THE SEAT that'll make it or break it!

[@fatguyonagrom9515]

Be great if Bobcat had the power that the others has

[@MrBrandbld0616]

Except the r2 series has the hydraulic couplers down low Can’t complain about the competition now

[@CoastConcreteCorp]

They should take this vid down lol

[@derKarl_stp]

in europe we run a lot of machines with at least 2 extra hydraulic circuits for grapple rotation and opening/closing (for example for sorting grapples) mounted via hydraulic quickhitch (and no we don't use a thumb over here) if I take away the thumb I do have 2 extra circuits but I am not sure that I can operate them at the same time... can I the only big issue I see with the high mount couplers for the hoses is that I need damn long hoses to the attachment itself and this can cause a lot of troubles at demolition worksites when you have long hoses running to a sorting grapple that basically go from the boom to the attachment (and hang lose to the stick length)

I've never had to put a track back on our 331e bobcat, but our u35 Kubota has spit 6 so far this year, and so have other u35s on site.

Be nice if Bobcat spent 5 more mins engineering paint these are rust buckets after the 2nd year!
