No matter the brand, it’s a treat to see an operator with some decent skills.

I have been watching your videos for quite some time now and you impress me with the machinery you have and the skills you and your men have running them. This new skid steer is simply amazing how much power and push it has. POWER is good.

Don't need a bulldozer when you've got that piece of machinery !

One of these pulled me out of the mud when I was driving a tandem dump truck. This Skid Steer is a beast. Very roomy inside also.

I was between this and my CAT that I just purchased this June. I went with my CAT. The biggest dislike of this machine for me was the door, the delay on parts at times (if needed) and more importantly the local dealer (for me) seemed shady, kept changing prices, and called me none stop. Rubbed me the wrong way.

I learned the hard way with John Deere. Now I shop after the sale service just as much now as I do brand. I have an 870 but I am switching to cat to get quicker better service.

Pretty impressive machine, that company has come a long way!

That thing makes my 2001 John Deere 250 look like an antique. Which can be a good thing, the amount of electronics on that thing must be crazy.

That backup beeper can be put on a switch to turn it off when you're on private land jobs...

Got a headache just listening for a few minutes.... can't imagine how Chris feels by the end of the day... think I would try and find that one wire!!

Andrew bought an IHI CL 35 which I think is parts from 13 different machines but it sure smells like a Takeuchi!!

awesome machine. and takeuchi just came out with the tl10v2..... i think i may lean towards this, since it will be easier to haul and manuver around sites.

Love my svl95 but man does this thing push. Looks like it was worth the investment

Most powerful skid steer ive ever run. And I've run em em all.

Nice new Takeuchi high flow skid steer, very fast awesome Chris 😂😛💥

in motion alarms, the bed tags of the construction industry.

That's quite a fast little machine very impressive

nice machine Chris i wish you all the best with it !!

thats a cool skid steer dude if i were to have one i would dig n dig and push dirt all day long man

Fast to get there butttttt ,,,A three yard front end loader one pass done. But all in all there is a place for these little guys

The only thing I don't care for just from observing this machine is the loose, exposed hydraulic hoses. They're just draped from the bucket to the arm and can get caught on anything and ripped off, then you're down. Not just this machine, but any that has exposed hoses anywhere outside the envelope of the machine. The only one I know of (I am sure there's more) that has rigid pipe tucked onside the arms and has enclosed hoses is the Bobcats. All their stuff is very well thought out. Even Cat has too much exposed hoses.

God damn boy, HEAT & AIR niceee. I'm still using my 90's 1845c your body and face are covered in dust by the end of the day, can't tell who gets dirtier me or the machine lol.

very impressive, it really did push good. You would think they would offer ride control. Or may they do.

Tim is a badass on that thing!

PRETTY NICE MACHINE. I am stuck with my ASV, and like where I am stuck. It does what I need it to do. owned a bunch of bobcats an it seams that the electronics in those are crap and had to get rid of them.

Bad ass Skid my man! Makes my L228 look tiny!!!!!

Nice bit of kit there Chris

so efficient with that thing..

Not a bad machine if ya can keep tracks on it and like some noise in the cab

That's a very unusual sounding street sweeper

Ok it does have ride control, weight 12,705 , horse power 111, load capacity 4107 They went through the whole machine and its as good as it gets. Looked at the specs and it bad ass. Shit what do you say.

@fishg8r230

Charles Dowdie he probably choose the takeuchi because majority of thoose skidsteers dont have any saftey switches. You just throw the bar down and go. Also it is probably the roll up door

Hi Chris good to see you post, it looks like some of NC is going to get a kicking from The storm, is that going to be close to you ?, if so good luck :). I guess as you are trying this machine you are trying to use it like a D6 Cat to see what it will actually do. Maybe thats why some say it seems under powered. It looks to me like some of that dirts wet heavy stuff it's moving and doing ok for a skid steer.

It would be a pretty poor worn out 6 if it wouldn't push that lot L.O.L. in it's place a skid steers a great machine with the tools it has, but so many try to use it for way to much and it becomes jack of all trades master of non for it's size. I'd do like Chris if I was demoing it, find out if it's got a big heart and balls for what they use it for. Or is it just an over price toy for the kiddies play day in the sand box.

Do tracks ever give you a hard time? Like replacing coming off etc etc?

I've got a 2015 TL10 and the only two things I don't like about the machine is the fact that the windows are not adjustable and it doesn't have cup holders and they solved both of those problems! You guys gunna trade your TL12 towards one of those?

Ever got to try out a Volvo CTL or Cat D series CTL?

Quick moving little minx. But it don't steer like a quad though. Never heard of Takeuchi before. But then again, in Texas they got Bobcat, Ditch Witch, Waukesha/Pierce, CAT, oh and Deere. But one hardly sees any Volvo unless some Yank hauls one in from out of state.

Hey Chris did you buy this new machine or you just demoed it pretty impressive I like the sliding glass door that goes up over your head I said the Kabota but once you put the door up in the Kabota cab if you want to run with the door up you could look up the review mirror and Kabota's instruments Rall behind your yard is turning around like a looking in the backseat wasn't impressed with the machine at all... if you were 300 pound or the cabin the Kabota you could sit you and your girlfriend in it like sit in the front seat of an old Buick wasn't that impressed and didn't like the hand controls that was a handful I take that back I can't do the left right up-and-down back-and-forth on one side like the cat I can't do that I'm gonna hold the hand control part bobcat guy or like case get back to me I want to know if you want to or you're dumb on it thanks Chris junkman do

How well would this do leveling large stone used as filler and filtration on a site being brought up to level? I'd like to rent a machine to do a property I have a chance to get, I need to haul in stone to help bring it up to the same grade as the main roadway that goes by it. To haul in the gravel I would need would be expensive without raiding the farmers rock piles for stone fill.

Where the Structure sits it needs to come up 6 and a half feet too be even with the roadway. And its a gradual slope.

well I just wasted 11 minutes of my life watching dirt get pushed around. no price. no horsepower. no torque. to lifting capacity. no max lifting height. no weight. no length, width. no fuel run times. well at least it can move dirt. kinda like my shovel. 👎👎👎👎👎
