Doosan makes them, along with excavators, in Terex livery for North America.

Back in the day i think they used to be a GM Co. and they had those screaming detroits in them.

Okay that being said how does a Doosan Daewoo hold up? Are they any good?

I don't have experience with them but Daewoo/Doosan has made loaders for a while so it's not something new. Like most machines, longevity has a lot to do with the correct specs/application and dealer/supplier backup support. If it's doing the job it's built for and someone stands behind it should be fine.

I don't think Terex sell too many in the US and one may wonder what support is behind it. Responsibilities can get fuzzy if/when a machine starts to have big troubles. Not saying it will, but it might. If a Cat breaks you know who to call.

PS - Terex had their own big loaders in the 70-80s when they left Euclid as part of GM, but that's history now.
