    Why are they building tractors, bulldozers, and payloaders with emmissions? All the new equipment has emmissions bull on it.

    They’ve had a C-15 with def that meets tier 4 emissions for years.....

    They use it in several different machines

    They actually seem to be half way reliable on equipment, the most complaints I've heard is the def on combines freeze because nobody figures you'll be combining when it's cold enough to freeze def apparently.

    I'm totally anti volvo just because I'm me and like what I like, but if you're gonna get one, that one in the pic is as nice as I've ever seen.

    Ok, then maybe the emissions standards are lower for off road. Otherwise I can't see any reason for Cat not to make a highway engine

    Well Inland really didn't impress me. I like MHC.

    They are a lot more. A lot less inventory as well.

    Well, looks like you're stuck with Casper til you retire. May as well overhaul him and buff out the paint!
