[QUOTE="Texas Ranch Hand, post: 1837315, member: 43336"] I’ve ran Case skid steers for about 30 years before I got a CAT CTL. I’ll never go back. If you keep the tracks adjusted there is nothing it won’t do better than a wheeled skid loader. One thing I have learned though is check out the DEF requirement before you buy. I bought a CAT 299d3 even when the dealer tried to talk me into a 289d. Oh no, I had to have the big bad boy not picking up the fact that the 289 doesn’t require DEF and it’s the same machine as the 299 but with about 10 HP less. I’m actually thinking about selling the 299 and getting the 289 as I've had issues with CAT’s DEF system. I Would assume all of the 90-100 HP machines the other manufactures also require DEF. CTL’s cost a little more but they are certainly worth it in my opinion. FWIW [/QUOTE]
