JD CT329D

[bffnc]

Anyone else have the new D-Series track loaders. Just got the CT329 myself and wanted to get some feedback from anyone who already had one. Will be using it in brush clearing (rotary blade, not those mulcher heads) applications and some other forestry and landscaping applications. I have the high flow with 17in tracks. Didnt get the EHPerformance Package. I cant wait to get to work...Stump bucket, 81" HD Bucket, 72" open front rotary cutter, 81" root rake, 81" heavy grapple claw... hope I dont need anything else.. I am having someone pull the rig on my trailer until I can justify buying a dedicated truck.. any suggestions???

Nice looking machine. Curious; why did you stop at the 329 and not get the 333? john

well, looking at the specs it was about the same as the 300 series 332. Thats the machine I have always used in the past and it did well for me. The 333 would have been nice, but if you look at the specs its not a huge difference for the $$. Same engine, same size, more weight and a litte more power with the 333.
