Well the dealer sent a teaser pic of the new skid steer. 259D, all options but high flow. For attachments, got the standard dirt bucket, 96" snow bucket, pallet forks, snowblower, tiller, and of course you can't forget the custom paint.

I believe you can still request custom paint from the factory. If I remember correctly, it wasn't out of line.

i'm assuming your referring to the hockey team? Yes....they offered this special build machine, all it amounted to was all black paint job and a few decal transfers....i think 2 k to switch over to black from cat yellow is kind of steep....painting is painting...setup to switch color is not what i would consider 2k worth of effort...each to there own as grandma always said...

I don't remember the exact cost but i beleive it was in that $2k range, not out of line at all.
My response is embedded in the quote......strange...
