I do a lot of ditching for 10 with my old D4 but i want something now that goes backward as fast as forward. I see 1994 machines selling for around $20K but am having a ruff time deciding between Cat Vs John Deere for what i do. I also move brush and many things i do require delicate movement....moving large objects and such, nothing beat my old manual clutch and gear shift for fine movement. I've only run 2 Hydrostatt machines in my life. Any advise please from you who have had the pleasure of running these new automatic transmission machines? I've heard the JD is hard to work on? The Cat D3 looks a little small, it may have more power than my old D4 but looks lighter.
