I’m in the market for an old track loader and hoping to get one home with a complete filter and fluid change around $30k. I have a few bookmarked yet being new to heavy equipment I would appreciate any advise you care share between the different models.
For example, on a hill, which will have the best stability?
Will the 983’s mass, help it hold traction or increase its likelihood to slide down the hill?
963 - Will transport the easiest. I expect it will preform similar to my D6D. Which I’m thinking maybe I should have purchased a D7.
973 -
983 - Most expensive to transport. But once on property not a big deal. I expect the oil changes to have crazy volumes. The fuel cost must surely be high but I expect it can move a mountain.
Please add in where you can.
Thanks
