Cost of land clearing

[Adkhunter1590]

I'm just looking at a rental, I'm not buying anything, just repeating what was said at the Bobcat dealer, they have a dedicated skid steer they rent with that forestry cutter, they said it is equipped with special safety equipment required for that attachment 

I have no doubt they told you it cost that much. I've heard stuff like that myself. That's usually when I laugh and walk out the door. We went through that with a bobcat dealer some years back when my old man was renting stuff for some projects around our old house. He ended up having another place bring him up machines from like 2 hours away for far less than the local dealer wanted.

Don't know too much. Just the bob cat and other dealers tend to be real proud of their stuff and charge higher rental rates. The last few times we've rented we found smaller rental places had much better rates.
