Compare the Cat Skidders

[@kevinhenry7273]

Little brother says "I can go where you can't, big brother" Big brother says " I can pull more than you, little brother"

[@ThatChipperGuy]

That’s the truth

[@eliteearthworksllc]

Quite the difference in the two. Those skidders are tanks 💪🏻

[@ryandelaney9571]

I'M sorry John but up here in the great white north a skidder without chains is just a glorified farm tractor

[@memyself7069]

Haha so true!!

[@Tyler-w8g4s]

They look small on camera until you see them in person

[@collectpad2207]

right

[@duru2882]

Climbing up into one a hundred times a day, makes you wish you were still running the old TJ 225’s, but it makes for a longer day and takes a hit in cost and efficiency!

[@edwardgaskin4245]

Awesome video John

[@collectpad2207]

good to know

[@waltermattson5566]

Will the new one be getting a winch on it?

[@joshbuck1323]

Can you add a winch to it

[@duru2882]

94’ TJ 450D had a winch (40,000)lbs, although someone said not all of them came with it from the factory! TJ’s were odd balls, you could choose cable, single arch, and dual arch, in most models!

[@richardhedrick5601]

Looks good

[@robertbrady9597]

HI JOHN GREAT VIDEO TONIGHT

[@makingithappen5178]

Those machines are made for hard beats and they seem to hold for that as well.

[@chuckwiegand4278]

Great video John there nice machines

[@AmateurLogger]

I like the Cat steering, takes a bit to get used to but definitely better than cranking the wheel around like you do on a Deere. Joysticks are best though

[@grahamferris3020]

The new Deere’s have the joysticks now. A lot better than the wheel for sure. Cheers

[@MotownVideo]

Your fixed video pic looks like the 545D has tiny happy eyes over the biggest happy face emoji grin!

[@660stihl]

Awesome, congrats on the new Cat!

[@openstationloggingkevinbak4625]

Very nice . Thanks for taking time to show differences between machines . Also the explain on duels didnt think the price on rims and rubber

[@davestinson5691]

That's a nice tractor. I bet they just give those away huh LOL. Nice comparison man

[@tommybritton9273]

Nice John

[@hockeyslade]

Where do your chips go?

[@Krieghandt]

You didn't mention how much better the old JD is to the new skidder. That was a cool video, will you be able to add a winch at a later time, or are they more integrated than a few bolts?

[@brianmeattey4151]

Yep she is gonna need a winch .ya just never know in the woods. that was proved a vid or 2ago ...godbless

[@jondoh5961]

nice when there new..

[@sladeleason4338]

Blade still rip off when back blading?

[@MMikeHD3904]

Maybe on cat yeah, time for tigercat dude

[@grahamferris3020]

You want to rip the wipers off till u work at night when it’s raining and foggy. They come in handy then. I run a 848l and it doesn’t have wipers on the back. Wish it did :(

[@jbmbanter]

Your shop man is very good. Can't he fabricate and weld on blade extensions for the smaller skidder. I've watched you guys work on everything and I know all of you are good mechanics, welders, etc.

[@VideosByAl]

Did you find the 545D local or have to haul it in ?

[@mikeandkimcook9074]

It came from Kamloops, British Columbia

[@Krieghandt]

@@mikeandkimcook9074 The boss is here, everybody look busy!!

[@brianmeattey4151]

Thers. Actually a big diff in size huh or many it's the bullet size to it but very nice and best thing is I can hear that moter better than the others .cause during vids they sound electric sometime when going by cam there so quiet ..so I'm like this big girl and the sound ..

[@norcalray7182]

So what is the HP on it

[@mouscj3]

Well i guess that since you didnt talk about it yet... A Winch has not been ordered yet to put on the 545... So is the Big BOSS gonna have or get a New Winch installed???... Otherwise the 545 is gonna be pretty useless when the 535 breaks down and the 545 cant pull trucks in or out of the woods...

[@bhermon265]

👍

[@collectpad2207]

good one

[@randlerichardson5826]

Good looking skidder for sure

[@larrykluckoutdoors8227]

👍👍👍

[@collectpad2207]

Good luck

[@timskiff9422]

Buy a winch for it

[@MMikeHD3904]

They aren't experienced operators are they, the object is NOT to drag it as high as ya can🤦‍♂️ , and cat skidders suck , time to graduate to tigercat boys!

[@عدنانالعامري-و9ق]

جون كيف حالك انا من العراق بلاد عربيه واريد اقتناء واحده كم يبلغ سعره وترك رقم جوالك في التعليقات

[@عدنانالعامري-و9ق]

Speak, John, I want to buy the little one, and how much does it cost?

[@عدنانالعامري-و9ق]

John, how are you? I told you last time that I want to buy a Caterpillar 415. How much is the price? Can you send it to Iraq?

[@robertkennedy3632]

Hey John

[@timmyfrierson2684]

John not cutting y’all down or nothing but having a scooter without a winch is useless as tits on a boar hog if you know what I mean but I know y’all had to get what you got you know what was available at the time but great video brother keep them coming

[@MMikeHD3904]

I skidded years with no winch, your high!

[@sethvlieger6007]

That 545C sounds better than these D models.

[@MMikeHD3904]

Still needs a football field to turn around, there junk, time to experience tigercat!

[@randlerichardson5826]

Hey bro

[@nickmartin4818]

Cat powah.

[@MMikeHD3904]

Glorified brand name, there one of the worse skidders out there

[@kumargupta5271]

F

[@adrian-pm3dt]

545 is way nicer to pull wood. I ran both them machines one time or another. Liked the bigger one best.
