I thought I read a comment from someone attending who said those two attachments were strictly for moving the prototype around, I think he said it didn't have a usable drivetrain (or something to that effect). Point to consider - my memory has reached a point beyond peak performance, now on the downslope : -)
I'm vague...

But I believe they were used to attach bar running across the front for testing purposes. Perhaps avoid rollover or whatever.

That said, a skid steer loader like a Bobcat is on my list of toys to buy when I win the lottery.
I'm assuming the reason I'm now getting Bobcat ads on this site is because of this post.

Now, how many times to I need to talk about winning the lottery before Powerball follows through?

Just buy Tesla stock, it will double or triple within the next five years. It has been on quite a run which may continue for some time. I would definitely buy if you are able on the pull backs. With the fact that the fed is probably done raising interest rates, this run in Tesla stock will definitely continue. There will probably be big announcements on investor day on March 1, the first quarter will have blow out numbers at the end of March and the earnings will be huge later in March. After that second quarter will also be huge and when they start giving details about the CT in mid summer, that will continue the run- bet the stock is up to $300 by the end of the year.

Thanks, and I do have some Tesla stock, but what I'm looking for is a $2 investment that pays out over $100M overnight. :)

Did it work? I'm not getting anything. At least nothing in that genre.

The most obvious instance I saw was back in the conversation about Mattracks. Took a few weeks to stop seeing tracked options.

At the moment though, I've been looking for security cams as we had a vehicle broken into with 3 windows broken. Now all the ads on here are for security cams.

Maybe my security cams are overriding your choice. Or maybe I need to be more choiceful as to what I am searching on the internet. Off to go find some kittens playing in boxes.

Huh, Hot tub and jewelry ads... I guess that could be lingerie and bikini adjacent? 🤔🤨 I'd rather be seeing Bobcats again. 🤷🏽

yup... and trucks with blades don't have enough weight to really get the job done...leaving snow behind which becomes concrete ice.
There are some interesting snow plow setups for pickups, ranging from light weight manual adjustment to stainless steel vee blade with class 4 hitch mount to frame mount, Wireless controls, electric, not hydraulic actuators, and clutches and springs to limit impact forces and limit shock to the truck.
The Cyber's traction control and torque should allow pushing at lower speeds and limiting shock.
Too much shock to frame is bad for the battery pack and for the airbag sensors.... Making a run at that icy or wet and heavy big pile is probably not a good idea.

The wide range of ride height adjustment could be very useful with the very simple plows, allowing you to effectively lift and lower the fixed plow 10 inches! theres a cool one that auto-swivels depending on snow resistance side to side.

What do you mean "the electronics have become useless"?

I've had no issues other than just traction and getting bogged down in really deep snow but that's just a function of ground clearance.

Here's a few pics of the Y

This is missing a good portion of the front structure. But... Those crush rails are the same thing you'd attach to on other trucks.
