Is the backhoe loader a thing of the past?

[Smiffy]

How much was a set of tracks on the skid steer above.if £250 a track that's only a pound an hour in running costs but I'd imagine tracks are a bit more expensive.my avatar was costing me a pound an hour in tyres back in 2001.was only on £17/18 an hour then too.its all added onto the daily charge.

I would have to double check my laptop as we had loads of work done at the same time but I think you would be closer to the £2500 mark.

That's outrageous but still only about a fiver a clock hour.id expect that machine to be in region of £45/50 hour anyway

Pretty certain Andrew gets more than that out of his tracks 🫣

I think MST would be around a grand each side. For long life, avoid spot turns, slipping tracks, tarmac, concrete a demo waste. Should be good for around 2000 hrs.

We went down to a narrower track which is meant to improve wear time on hard surfaces. And ours 2 sizes up from yours. Can't remember if the £2500 was for the wide tracks or narrow tracks.
They where from the bobcat dealer so as @Bri963 says you could probably save some money but yeah go easy on them as they aren't a cheap hobby.
I don't know what the excavators are like but bobcat ctl components in general aren't cheap.
