Had a major breakdown on my 334 yesterday and when i took it in for repair got to play a little with a 435.... Might trade in the 334. Any body have one? any problems? Thanks!

wow, who is you're dealer down there?? i know our dealer is awesome, bobcat of the rockies. sorry you are having problems. i know some fellas with a a 300's and they speak very well of them.our newer 07 435 runs like a top, i can't see the digging being any worse down there than up here.we also run head shakers and hammers and load with 36" buckets. well, whatever, to each his own. i'll take that bobcat over a cat all day long.

I am happy hear that you are having good experiences with your Bobcats and your dealer. I would much, MUCH rather report a positive experience with mine but unfortunately I can not. I do however really like the way the A300 works. It will grade while turning, won't tare up your work,gets traction all the time, and doesn't eat tires (1900 hrs on OEM HD tires-may reach 3,000). It has had numerous problems also, but compared to the 435 has been pretty good. Unfortunately they cost about as much as a tracked unit, and don't come in yellow.
I certainly wish the OP (and all other Bobcat owners) the best of luck with their machine/s.
I, on the other hand will not buy Bobcat again, nor would I expect anyone who has had anything close to my difficulties to.
