We have an older gehl prolly infinity hours, bucket, forks, post drill.
Regular maintenance have had few issues, may go out tomorrow
It she’s been a good one Father in law has a 1999 Gehl 66’somwthing and it is awesome, 80 or 90hp and it stout requires very little maintenance. We have done everything under the sun with it cleared lots, light dirt work, pulled fence, moved mobile homes loaded broken dozers the list goes on and on. Everyone I know around town here has gehl and some bought new ones...

Bobcat has a Doosan engine
John Deere has a Yanmar Engine
Cat has a Cat engine
Kubota has a Kubota engine
Takeuchi has a Kubota engine
My Cat 259D has a Perkins in it. I’ve had nothing but good service out of my Cat stuff. The only other machine on that list I would potentially look at buying would be a Takeuchi.

Im looking for one myself. From what Ive seen Takeuchi is very reliable and pronably the least bad reviews. The newer Kubota svl -95 has a lot of DEF problems per reviews. Im looking used in the 25-35k range. Ive got my eye on a Kubota SVL-90 which is pre def. Im waiting to here back on a Takeuchi TL 12. I just hope I get a good machine. We have a newer cat hear at work and we have had plenty of DEF issues with it. It was down for months for a part they couldn't get.

If you buy used, be sure you find out what the machine has been used for. I would NOT buy a used machine that has been used for mulching.

I e been using a 60hp ASV around the house for the past 2 years and it’s been great. Not beating it to much but it gets worked.
Don't blame me for your bad decision-

The best skid steer to use is someone else’s. 
The true mark of a man is not how he conducts himself during times of prosperity, but how he conducts himself during times of adversity.
