R/C system for Bobcat skidsteers!

[bentover]

Now the Bobcat Corporation has really out done themselves now, a real R/C set up for the new loaders! Imagine working from your couch while you dig yourself a new swimming pool!

The press release:

The video proof:

So what does this mean?
1. Bobcat is planning for our Gen-X children to be more comfortable operating the loaders.

2. Bobcat is trying to make it easier on those of us who can't handle the pounding on our older bodies.

3. They thought Mattel would partner (until the unfortunate Mattel recalls...)

4. Two engineers were talking and one said “I bet you I could do that sitting on my couch.”

5. Thousands will add this to their Christmas lists this year.

That's really slick. I'd say it's a must have for anyone who cleans up sewage spills. Now they can do it standing up wind.

Except with an armoured Bobcat version, only problem is where do I hide, 1500 feet from peering eyes?

maybe its just my uncanny ability to pick up stupid bits like this in movies and stuff, but did anybody else notice the weather report happening while the newscast was playing?
