Anyone ever try this yet? Looks pretty bad ass - http://www.ditchwitch.com/model.asp?modid=89 play the video and check out the specs. Anyone know how much it runs? I like the self loading power buggy. I might have to look into this. 30hp is a decent size for a little ride on. The thing even has a tamper attachment!! Also a grapple fork, cement mixer, tree forks, tiller, backhoe. Jeez this is the swiss army knife of mini loaders!

What's the pricetag on something like that? Looks like a sweet machine indeed after seeing the video. I have to say I hated the DitchWitch miniloader but it was an old unit compared to the newer Bobcat MT and Toro minis I have also run. I hear the Vermeer are nice and the Boxer's have a lot more power than the others.

tight radius trenching, and the self loading burrow is cool, neat machine.

Too bad the Zahn doesn't come with tracks. The SK650 looks pretty bad ass and can take all the same attachments and it has tracks and come equipped with a 31 HP Kubota Diesel. Supposedly it can reach high enough to dump into a truck. I don't know if any other mini's can do this. One of my rental yards has ditch witch minis, I'm gonna try it out and see if it's any good compared to the MT.

I demo'ed the Vermere and it dumped over the sides of my 2500 ram with 8" boards running down the sides, so it should dump into a 1 ton. I'm thinking though one could fab up some portable ramps to give you an extra foot for dumping height.
