I have calculated that the running costs for my track system, IE - tracks, sprocket rollers, and track rollers is app $7/hr. The RC50 which is a bigger machine, about the same size as a 853 Bobcat would have to be $10/hr.
The tracks for my machine are app $4500 per set.
but the advantages far outway this cost.
I had just excavated for some walls and laid the first course of a wall, and now it is raining and the site is a bog hole. A normal skid steer wouldn't get near the site for at least a week, but my RC30 is carrying blocks to the work face and backfilling the wall.
That's 2 days work I would not have done if I didn't have this machine. That's almost $2000.
