mini skid steers

A friend who works at a landscape company convinced his boss to rent me this one on sunday. Worked out great. Screw shoveling by hand!
 
I have a Kubota L35 @ 6000lb and it's a bit scary loading it on the trailer but it tows decent with a 1500. The first time I ever towed it was from ohio to michigan and it wasn't too bad but electric brakes on the trailer are highly recommended. For grading I would use a land grader on the back of a 3pt which is a little more dummy proof than a skid steer IMO.


I had a full sized Kubota L3400 with a backhoe as well as an old Ford skidsteer and the tractor was nowhere near as heavy as a skidsteer. Those are heavy sumbitches. I towed my skidsteer up here from downstate and it was a chore. Went slow because I knew I was taxing my 1500 Sierra. Don't think I would do that again. Either way, if I figured both out, so can you. Bent the shit out of my ramps too on the skidsteer....
