The VTS has been in the market for over 2 years now and has various sizes ranging in price to cover a wide range of machines. The price starts at $11,500. The system has an impeccable reputation for being a valid attachment and although select manufacturer's warranties may be voided with installation, some manufacturers do not take that stance. If that is a concern to the user, Loegering provides a service contract that can be purchased to cover machine failures in the event that the manufacturer's warranty will not cover failure.
Most, if not all, track machines are going for far more than $11,500 - $15,000 new and have the following:
-Higher depreciation than your skid steer loader at trade in
-Depending on Mfg, may or may not have suspension
-Higher operating costs
-Lack the versatility of taking the track on and off when needed
-Down time when it needs service
-Pay premium to purchase track every time you buy a new track machine, can not bring undercarriage to new machine
