My flying buddy in N TX owns a used equip business. He takes in all kinds of machines, including skid steers. According to him, by the time a skid steer has ~3000 hours, they are beat to spit, and near worthless. Most of the time, he offers less than half retail price if over 3000 hours because he knows how much it will cost to get it to work right, and safe.
He advised me to never buy a used skid steer until he checks it out. There was a Bobcat brand with 3700 hours I was looking at. He saved me from a $12k mistake. I would say plan another $3-5000 in catch up repairs. My buddy does this for a living, and he has a hard time making money on old skid steers.(he won't sell them messed up, too much liability)
