First time running a Bobcat! This Bobcat T870 with Forestry Mulcher Skid Steer is amazing!

What's it like to run a huge Bobcat compact track loader and shred trees? Today I'm going to find out! I got the chance to try out a friend's Bobcat T870 CTL with a quick tach forestry mulcher attachment! This piece of machinery is amazingly powerful and super fun to operate. I helped clear a large section of woods and learned a lot about how to efficiently and professionally operate this kind of machinery.

Welcome to Garage Story!
I'm in the business of hunting up old lawn mowers and other small machines, and either parting them out, or fixing them up and selling them for profit. Come along for the ride with my weekly vlogs, and how-to videos.

In Oklahoma the trees are so small you cut them down with a snowblower!

I hope one day you have your own. Great seeing you get that opportunity!

[@garagestory]

heh i grew up around this sort of equipment. by far my favorite was the bobcat. mostly moving dirt for trails. owned a treefarm.

[@garagestory]

I haven’t tried any other brands yet, but definitely liked the Bobcat!

Nice Video - and your timing in posting it was great! I'm going to be renting a T870 with a mulcher next weekend. I liked the perspective from inside the cab. It's been almost 40 years since I've been inside a Bobcat, but hopefully I'll pick it up quick. I have about 3.5 acres to clear.

[@garagestory]

Great! That sounds like a fun project. I really liked the T870. It will probably take a bit to get used to the new style controls, but they are really pretty easy to use.

[@rogersmith9506]

Oh man I could definitely use one of those! Nice buddy

[@garagestory]

They are pretty effective!

[@GC-874]

I keep seeing multiple companies advertising these on facebook. I guess your friend answered my question. Costs $25hr run and makes $150-$250 an hour I've heard. Curious to know how much demand there is for this type of service?
