[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1837147, member: 21382"] Your a sharp mechanic and I respect your thoughts on this type of stuff. I get what your saying and did a pile of work with a tire machine the last 18 years. Tires just don't run with a track machine period. As for maintenance cost those tires won't last as long as a set of tracks under a good operator and those steel tracks are not cheap and maintenance free. With drive motors and chains vs. 2 planetary's. Bottom line productivity level factored in a track machine is as cheap or cheaper to run than tires if you have a good operator. [/QUOTE]
