I think we used to have a 733, 753 & 756. Use phased out our Bobcat skid stears and switched to the John Deere. We have 3 of them tracked, 2 enclosed cabs.
Looks nice Hooli

Bronco is a smart cat.
Very easy going, doesn't break in on the furniture, quiet,, nice cat.
Can't use regular housecat veterinary medicines, have to use the zoo lines of medications and vacinations.
Extra $$.
Gets to basic instincts real quick when a rabbit is in the yard.
Can jump incredable heights and distances, superfast runners. Never bites, but is pretty rough with other cats.
Hooli,
I sell Bobcats for a living. PM me with the details and I will try to hook you up. What model is it? Do you have square or rectangle lights?
Hours?
Leaks?
I had to use skidsteers a lot at work.
I guess it depends on what you are using it for, but I always prefered Cats because the hand control for the bucket is a night and day difference if you are trying to do any grading with it. Only thing I didn't like about those is they were less stable front to back and it was really easy to roll it back on to the back skid plate.
The older Deere's like 6675 and 7775 were really New Hollands but ours ran up a few thousand hours which was good for us since our guys could fock up a steel ball with a rubber hammer.
The newer Deeres (260, 250, etc) suck, but I got a great deal from the sales guy.
A couple of the Bobcat's I drove were OK, but didn't seem special compared to the Cat.
The backhoe attachment is better than a pick and shovel but that's about it.
The only power attachment I used and though was worth the trouble was the hydraulic breaker.
