Anybody hear of/know of SkidSteerExpress???

<http://www.skidsteerexpress.com>

Nothing much on them, themselves on home page, etc.

Have a couple things I'm interested in but hadn't heard of 'em and just
thought I'd ask here as there are a lot of folks into a lot of stuff...

A guick dags didn't uncover anything bad but nothing on the company,
either...

You bring back memories of one of my fun customers.

Never bought much from me but the plant tours were a gas.

BTW, before Terex, it was Euclid.

I recently bought some mounting plates from them. I have a small Thomas 85
skid steer, and I wanted to get a 48" bucket and a set of forks for it, but
for some reason no one including Thomas, has the proper mounting plate. All
the places that claim to sell them, have the 85 mixed up with walk behind
machines. The owner of SSE talked to me on the phone, verified that I was
correct, and got me the needed plates. The price was great, the shipping
fast. Very nice folks to deal with

In my opinion, it looks like a smallish company that might be good. It's
definately worth sending them an e-mail and asking questions. (If you
want to talk to someone on the phone, I guess you've got to e-mail them
first.)

They've got a place for local pickup, so if you're nearby take a look at
what you're interested in personally.

Be sure to ask about their warranty.

They make a helluva refrigerator also ... a little smaller, but probably
in the same price range. ;)

No it isn't. Just pull up to the curb and make your own room by
squashing any cars in the way.
Can't wail until one of them shows up in the monster truck shows.

Extremely minimalist--no mailing address, no physical address, etc.,
etc, ...

Always wonder where things are going when there's no indication of who's
behind the curtain in the corner and Toto hasn't pulled back the curtain...

Could be fine, might be black hole...so far I've held off owing more to
other things intervening so haven't done a ping to see if get response
or not.
