    Info on a case 850D

    Thanks alrman. Do you own a case or just work on them? I have a small excavating business and I want to get a bulldozer, if you were in my shoes would you get this case or find a newer or different brand,It won't be used daily if i put 200-300 hours a year on it I will be surprised.
