    MTL Attachments- not a good experience...

    I bought a low profile bucket from them last year. Upon receiving bucket, it looked a little small so I measured it. It was 3" shorter than advertised. I called and got the same treatment. I sent them pics proving their inaccurate measurements after I was told I didn't know what I was talking...

    New 259d3

    Has anyone bought a new 259d3 lately with the mounting plates unlevel where the bucket attaches? I have demoed 2 in the last week and both has the right tab higher than the left. The bucket will not cut level. Just curious if this was a fluke or if it's a consistent problem. Really like the...

    CAT 259d3

    I'm looking at making the jump from a wheeled machine to tracks. I've been eyeing the 259d3 pretty hard. Has anyone had any experience with those? Any pros/cons? Any input would be much appreciated.

    Cat 259d vs 289d

    Currently I own a Bobcat S650 and would like to upgrade to a track machine. Leaning toward Cat because our local Bobcat dealer is not known for great service after the sale. From my research, other than weight and breakout force, the Cat 259d & 289d are similar. I do a few jobs where I tear our...

    S650 A/c issues

    My '12 Bobcat S650 has had several issue with A/c components. Pressure switch, hose, and now it appears the compressor has a leaky seal around the clutch area. Has anyone else experienced trouble with this and does anyone know if the seal can be replaced or will I have to buy a new compressor?
