The reason i bought my 885 was for three basic reasons. It will lift alot and not be tippy. I unload pallets of portland (3200 lbs.) all the time. It is very easy to see out of. I work in very tight quarters and you can see out the back window and the sides extremely well. You can see the front of the bucket. If you have to do fine grading or shave a little off it is much easier when you don't have to guess where the bucket is. I also have no problem loading dirt into tandems as the bucket has a much higher reach than others I have used and it actually goes forward some as it raises. As far as foot controls go, I wouldn't have it any other way. I am often running an auger attatchment so my right hand has to be twisting the lever constantly. Guys will argue this point for hours, but I spend a great deal of time in my machine and have no problems with foot controls, regardless of the terrain.
