Dozer verses Case quad trac

plowking740 ยท 2019-03-27 19:08

My boss is looking at buying a case quad trac and a couple pans and a dozer blade for earthworks. not a bad idea, have seen lots of them around but he wants to put a dozer blade on the front and use it as a dozer as well. Im trying to convince him not to do that, buy the dozer instead. Cost wise, he can pick up a quad and pan for around the same price as a good used 6n or 750 deere. (not interested in any other brand dozer. i tried that already) I hoping for a dozer, way more applicable on commercial sites i think. Any ideas? good, bad?

    The tracks on the Case are rubber and use tension. I don't see it good for much dozing work other than leveling freshly laid, light material. If he's just looking for something to level out everything between passes...it'll probably work fine.
