Well I wasn't expecting to learn that much, but I did. Thanks.

Having used the non-self leveling bucket on the old Ford for at least 2 decades I've gotten used to leveling it myself. To be fair though, I am hardly ever scooping material, I'm more likely to be loading an engine into the back of a truck ,or picking up a 5'x10' x.75" steel welding table. I figure that thing weighs right at 2,000 lbs with the legs, and right now it's the heaviest thing I have to move.

I seem to recall dumping some dirt on the hood once when I was first starting out by rolling it back too far. I don't think I've done it again, but maybe I've blocked out the embarrassment.

Xfaxman, that's a sweet Bobcat! I don't think I have a use for a Telehandler, but I'm drooling a little. What's the reach on it?

I didn't have a use for a tractor after I got a compact telehandler. (y)
