So which do you like better for bushhogging? Cat Or ASV? which tracks are smoother? Which one has given less trouble? Sorry for so many questions.

I liked mowing with my asv ,it handles the weight fine but it flows less than the cat so the cats a little better for mowing it spins it faster. The cat is a 252b with the vts track conversion, it's ok a little hard on the turning.
The truck should be a cat 725 or 730 and the hoes are a 320 and a long reach 32?

Those are aftermarket tracks on the Cat, it's originally a rubber tired skid steer. Looks like that brand Koering? Something like that.

Those are Loegering VTS tracks. I now it was on the tip of your tongue, so I thought I'd throw it out there for ya.

LowBoy,

Wells ville is about 50 miles south and about 47 miles east of Buffalo, Have you noticed how Milton has grown over the years? Just like Nortrax for Deere up here in New England?

Yeah Milton definitely sprouted up over the last dozen years. Just the other day I was having a discussion with a Milton Cat service tech that was on the job I'm on, he said they are closing a few of the western New York branches down for sales. Sign of the times I believe.

Milton Closed Buffalo and Rochester NY last January. Milton opened a new 20 million dollar facality in Batavia NY to replace both Buffalo and Rochester.
