The versatility is unmatched. Like the Swiss army knife of the machinery world. I started with a 743 SS. Great little machine. Got a ton of use out of it, but it lacked high flow which I wanted for mowing chores. I eventually sold it and bought an 883. More power, heavier machine. Although I preferred the ride on the tired machines, I was constantly getting stuck or rutting my yard, so I broke down and bought a T300 track loader. Another huge power increase, much heavier, but with a LOT less ground PSI. It is a wider machine (especially with 18" tracks), but it is a great machine. Too much machine? Most of the time, yes. But there are some jobs that it justified it's bulk...[ATTACH=full]5410[/ATTACH]The Cat 262D is a great machine. Very popular and a good "mid-size". I think you'll like it.</blockquote>
