00:01Okay, so you want a compact skid steer loader but you don't want to blow your whole budget on one.
00:06I went through the listings, sorted out the noise, and found some genuinely good deals under 1500 bucks.
00:13Some of them even surprised me.
00:16First up, the EE-594, the 114th scale remote control truck loader with working lights.
00:23$57 in change, and it ships fast.
00:26You've got the little front bucket, headlights that actually light up, and it's sold over 3000 times, which tells you
00:32kids love it.
00:34If you want to introduce somebody to construction equipment without buying a real machine, this is the move.
00:40Now the other EE, the E-594 slip loader, and honestly this might be my favorite of the two RC
00:46models.
00:474822, rated 4.9, and nearly 3000 sold.
00:52The slip loader body gives it that bobcat stance, it's the cheapest thing on this whole list, and for the
00:57price of a fast food run you've got a birthday gift that isn't going to be broken by Tuesday.
01:02But let's talk about something you can actually work with.
01:05This mini skid steer loader runs a real diesel engine with CE Euro 5 and EPA certification, so it's current
01:12emissions legal, not a backyard novelty.
01:15$340 for a real machine with a real engine is not a typo.
01:19If you do landscaping, trenching, or small site prep, this is the sweet spot.
01:24At the top of the budget, the Yenmar diesel 4-wheel drive loader, 1188.
01:30This is the serious one.
01:32Yenmar engines are legendary, 4-wheel drive means it handles mud and uneven ground, and it's CE certified with factory
01:39customization options.
01:41If you've got real work and real money, you want diesel, and this is as close to the top of
01:45the under 1500 range as you're gonna get.
01:48Then there's this telescopic arm front-end loader, and I like it because it comes in 1-ton, 2.1
01:53-ton, and 3-ton versions, so you pick the size that matches the job instead of overbuying.
01:59Telescopic arm gives you better reach and cleaner dump clearance while the machine stays compact enough for tight spots.
02:06476, 5 stars, over 1100 sold.
02:09Notes for you, not VO.
02:12Only number 3 is a true mini skid steer.
02:15Number 1 and number 2 are RC toys, number 4 is a wheel loader, number 5 a front-end loader.
02:22Keep the two scales framing honest or the comments section will eat you alive.
02:26Say it on camera, RC models equals gift slash kids content, hashtag 3 hashtag 5 equals real equipment.
02:34Don't imply hashtag 4 slash hashtag 5 steer vertically like a skid steer.
02:39Real machines, check freight, lead time, and warranty before you tell viewers.
02:43Links are in the description.
02:44A $340 machine that costs $400 to ship is a different video.
02:50Skip, any spec you can't read on the listing page.
02:53No bore, no lift height, no HP invented.
02:55Click, any yapable, ISBN- onto the description.
02:552nd in juice in the description.
02:56You can also set up the list for new features.
