Saw a Toro Dingo 220 mini skid loader yesterday
Original Message   Jun 8, 2005 4:40 pm
I was at my favorite burger joint yesterday, and they had a landscaping crew in spreading mulch around. They used a Toro "Dingo 220" model mini skid loader. This unit would fit in the back of a small import truck, but the bucket looked to carry about 1/2 yard of mulch. The operator stood on a small platform at the rear of the machine, or could opt to walk behind on foot. It had a diesel engine, judging from the sound, and was extremely manuverable. No pics I'm afraid, but what a neat piece of equipment.
