    Bobcat plays shell game with financing ie 0% 5yrs or 4500 discount...so then is there actually 4500 interest charge as principle up front? What interest rate can u get from ur bank? Watch out for "finance companys" I am still loosing sleep over my 24 mth lease 8% that turn out 14.5% 27mth lease.

    Kinda hard to beat 0% isn't it?

    good machines. Ran an older 305 and a newer 303 and they seemed to be all right. Any machines are going to have pros/cons but,to me anyways,the Cats always seem to be at the top and if the deal is right the choice should be obvious.

    Run an equivalent kubota and some other brands before you commit...
