New to the forum and in the market for a Brutus or 3650. Will definitely have some questions but don't worry, I know how to use search so I'll try not to be too annoying.
Currently have a Deere skidsteer and 5 compact tractors for snow removal and looking to swap out the fleet one at a time to forward facing blowers. Toolcats are out of my budget right now but hope to get at least one eventually.

Welcome!

If I had the budget, I'd definitely have gone toolcat. But then I'd need to build a new shed just for all the attachments.

If you're planning on eventually having multiple units with snowblowers, definitely make sure you standardize on the new model blower with the belt drive. Actually, if I were buying today I'd have them quote a fully loaded model with the V-plow and the bed-mount spreader. Maybe the angle broom if you really want to get down to bare pavement.

I recommend checking with your nearest Polaris dealer and Bobcat dealer, pit them against each other. I found my Bobcat dealer not only offered a better price, but also has a much more businesslike service department accustomed to working on hydraulics and diesels.

Interestingly, my 3650 hardcopy user manual is not identical to the Brutus manuals you find online.
