[QUOTE="pelpel, post: 11004, member: 763"] I had a long chat with a CAT Rep about buying a 236 with the Loegering VTS Track setup. It is the same cost at the end of the day byuing a 236 and a set of VTS vs. the CAT Track loaders (247 / 257 MTL). BUT, an interesting side note to anybody considering using tracks, ever over the tire tracks. According to the CAT Rep, the hydraulic motors / pumps on a regular skidsteer are not up to the task of continual track use due to the extra strain. When you order a new CAT SSL, you have the option from the factory to order uprated pump / motors which are warranty approved for track use. I don't know if this is a sales pitch or an admittance of a sub par product, but it is nonetheless something to consider as hydraulic motor / pump replacements can get costly. [/QUOTE]
