Skid Steer is a very versatile machine and can take many attachments. You can add a dozing blade, mulcher that can take out the saplings and other trees up to 8" in diameter. Stump grinder, log splitter, snow plow, cold planer to grind asphalt, broom, Auger, hammer, grapple buckets, mesquite clearing attachment, trencher, saw, backhoe attachment, brush cutter, a box blade, etc. You can clear land a lot quicker and more efficiently than a mini ex with a blade. You can get a large track CTL machine with 100 HP, essentially a small dozer if your heart so desire.
I've seen a couple of serious injuries when changing attachments. It doesn't seem possible to drop the corner of the attachment into the cage but people find a way.

If you can operate a tractor you can operate a bobcat. Hydraulics are simple.

The catch is; I’ve never driven one of these machines.
How much damage can I cause?
They're very easy to drive. You'll get the general hang of it in 5 minutes and well be proficient after an hour or two. If the land gets wet at all, get one with tracks instead of wheels or you'll spend most of your time getting unstuck.

Not reading past you never ran one before and asking how much damage you can cause because if you plan on doing any digging, I would suggest you at least place a one call before you dig into a pipeline or conduit that could be buried and either kill you or cost you a bazillion dollars to fix.

I sold Bobcat for two years
Are they heavy enough to scrape the top 6 inches off of my back yard? I have a tractor with a grader box but no trailer so I have rent something no matter what.
