As much as I love tractors I find myself eyeing compact tracked loaders more and more. How are they to operate on rougher ground for long period of time. Do they beat up the operator?
I have researched the machines alot. I really like the cat multi terrain loaders similar to the ASV system. Dose it really make the machine that much more capable vs the ridge carriage?
Also how ate they over rocks? Do rocks just shred the tracks or what?
How is shuttling dirt say 200 yards over rougher ground. With a tractor having 4 wheel makes it somewhat smooth. With the tracked loader is seen you bounce and teeter alot more.
I end up using my tractor as a loader more than anything. My dream is to have a tractor for working in the woods and a tracked loader for working with dirt. Any input?
