Bill, your saying that it going to cost you about $1.00 per hour more to run the Cat than a rubber tire machine, plus about 1 hour each day for maintenance? Thats not too bad they are making improvements to the system.
What is Operator training is going to run you? How many operators are you training on it.
I had tried a ASV before and didn't like the controls, but Cat's new system which takes after their dozer line of controls is going to take the other manufactures by storm! I ran a Cat 312 all last week and it's a nice machine but a bit under powered for it's size. I did enjoy it's comfort and options. The throttle control sensors on the joy sticks really make it nice. Did you order your machine with the A/C option?
What is the GPS system going to run? How many channel system is it? Does it have a radio control from the main station to the equipment?
Have you heard of any problems with buildings interfering with signals? Here we run into problems unless we have a clear view of the sky.
