Neighbor just tried out a small John Deere payloader. Was gonna trade the loader off his 4240 and his 320d two-speed skid steer. Loved the loader, hated the price. His only complaint (other than price) was the fact that it was quite slow - no faster than the skid steer. Ended up keeping the loader on the tractor and trading the 320d in for a 320e.
I have a Deere 317 skid steer and wouldn't be without it. They're just handy. I've run those Willmar Swingers and they're handy, too. That said, I don't think I'd have a skid steer or payloader as my primary "big" machine. Why don't you keep the 706 and look for a low cost skid steer to replace the loader?
