    Operating a skid steer

    Tom how can you say you dont think bobcats have good side visibility thats a first? you can see the tracks or the tires on the bobcat with the boom all the way down thats a plus in my book. Go try operating a deere or a new holland or even the older series cat there a nightmare

    Honest opinions

    I would demo both side by side... In my honest opinion the bobcat t320 has better visibility and more power.. Compare the 2 belive me the cat will come with a smaller bucket and still wont push as much as the t320..

Deere makes a good skid steer but there visibility is just not there. Bobcat and case have the best visibility for skid steers
