Havent been able ot get outside yet, but seems pretty toasty in here.

A/C in a machine like that is such a nice comfort these days.

Comfort yes but more of a necessity. Other wise a Bobcat is like a green house with a heater with all the heat coming out of the machine.........

Yeah they have small tight cabs, not much room for air to move around.

Whenever i used the bobcat i used to run on the hot days, hte only option was taking the door right off, and opening the side windows.

Taking the door off certainly helps some (except with it`s real dusty working conditions
) but that doesn`t take the place of air on a very calm day with no clouds in sight.

I can see why in your case for sure. You probably spend alot more time in that cab then I had to! For me in the summer it was maybe an hour at a time before I could hop out for a bit.

Yeah that is way to long of a time to be stuck in a cab like that on a normally cool day, let alone a scorcher!
