I wish I knew some one who works on the cats daily to ask his opinion.

Well OK the cat tracks do not like side slopes as we put the tracks back on them daily and as for the tension of the track loose or tight the come off. Drive a cat and a bobcat down into a mud pit and do a 180 and come back out the cat will be the last one out the pilot controls in the cat limit its mobility in deep mud. The two redeeming features of the cat is it's smooth ride and it is one snow pushing machine especially the 277C.

Believe me guys I don't dislike cat it pays my bills but just because it says cat on it doesn't make it the best thing.

I must be that 1 odd ball then

but travy is right , but this is coming from 1 who still operates 1 , but aside from name they are a different animal and are good in different applications . as for side slope and loosing tracks , you can feel the limit , when it is time to point it perpendicular to the slope . I use to work in a lot of wet conditions , I'm sorry but the cat out performed the bobcat hence my choice of animal I could go on about the pros and cons of both but I got work to do
