    $3000, single stick not sure I was going to like that but it is actually pretty nice can drive around with one hand and drink beer with the other.:coldone:. It also has the old style bucket attachment so "new" attachments won't fit but it came with a bucket and forks so I can't see needing anything else. The second bucket is rough, I was thinking about cutting it up and converting it to a snow plow blade.

    Does that just have a T bar for control? Drove a lot of different skid steers at work but never got a chance to run one of those.
    That 120 should do anything around a home with ease.

    Sounds as though you're getting closer to your move to St Croix?

    it has a T bar between your legs push forward, pull backwards twist for right and left can drive with one hand.
    the locking mechanism on the bucket, the top is similar to the new attachment the bottom is a single pin in the center.

    those plans have changed since Dad passed and the island was destroyed in the hurricane, probably worked out for the better. if we would of been moving faster we probably would of lost most everything there.
    "Someone" was watching over us.
    We will be doing several months here and there not going there permanently at this point.
