@sewallm60 We tried their loaders in the oilfields and they could not compare to Case. Case had them beat at every turn. Cat was really expensive and Case wasn't much better. In the Timber Skidder business Cat was good but so was eveyone else. In crawlers was a different story. I personally watched old IHC T25's run circles around the Cat High track dozers. It was shameful. IHC built a tough powerful dozer and it could out push and out rip Cat anytime baby. Excavators, John Deere won.
@raginroadrunner believe me i know what you're saying is true but somehow they got the really big contractors
brainwashed, i had an 850 case track loader in the 70's and i could run all over cat loaders twice as big but the parts supply worldwide is what keeps cat going as we know parts is where the money is
They need a huge friggin tractor that after they go through and all the stumps are sticking out. To drive through with a blade that pulls the stumps then shreds them puts the chips in a trailer as a tow behind or as a solid unit together with the tractor and plows the ground flat with one machine. Now that would be cool to see. It would have to be huge. Use the chips for the seedlings or something. But stacked. Like a bail of hay it stacks the chips then puts them to the side.
I actually herd the wheeled versions are better than tracked tracked are good for steep grades and the wheeled versions will be good on anything else if your getting bogged in the woods you need to lay down a road out of slash and wood when your done pull the road up and carry it with you
ill bet that thing will pull like a bastard. i just love cat.. even when somone just says CAT the hair stands up on the back of my neck. or even when i see a CAT shirt, ball cap, or a sticker.
@ticker511 ya but ther slow compared to a rubber machine ther only good for steep and wet ground but moslty wet ground and thats a pretty small cat to build roads it will do it but you have to work the machine alot harded to get it done
Just another over priced Cat Product...they need to come down to earth..the Japanese are kicking their asses..how do they stay in business///.....RR

Cat has been making these type of crawler skidders since the mid 80s in the D4H TSK and the D5H TSK.
