I remember the Cat 320C series machines had 24 volt cigarette lighters, one of the guys I worked with wired it up differently so it would be only twelve so he could plug in his lunchbox heater thing. And yeah I miss the roar of the old 3406's in the 245's.

Methinks your a little late. 245 seems to have given up on trying to tell us things we all knew. Let's see if we can liven up the discussion again.

Ok so..... Been running the PC400 the last couple days. The speakers seem kind of tinny. What are your thoughts gents? as say compared to Cat and Deere paper crap speakers.
