Pros & cons
Case TR340B
- ✓The TR340B is Case's most powerful radial CTL, and operators doing heavy dirt work praise its 8,700 lb bucket breakout force for digging and dozing.
- ✓The 3,400 lb rated capacity and 90 hp give it serious muscle for grading, backfilling, and moving heavy material efficiently.
- ✓Radial lift geometry keeps the load close for excellent digging and grading control down low, which earthmoving crews specifically value.
- ✓Case cabs are roomy and comfortable with good visibility, and owners appreciate the low-effort EH controls over long days.
- ✓Case pricing undercuts equivalent Bobcat and Cat CTLs, so value-focused buyers feel they get big-frame capability for less money.
- ✓The 24.2 GPM standard flow (with high-flow available) handles a wide range of attachments without immediately needing the upgrade.
- ✓The two-speed travel and strong tractive effort make it productive on large sites where ground-to-ground moves matter.
- ✓Owners report the FPT engine pulls strongly and the machine feels planted and stable when pushing heavy piles.
- ✗Case's dealer and parts network is thinner than the big three, and owners in some regions report frustrating waits for undercarriage and service parts.
- ✗Radial lift limits dump height and reach at the top, so loading high-sided trucks is awkward compared to the vertical-lift TV450B.
- ✗Track and undercarriage costs are significant, and owners note replacement parts add up, especially on abrasive ground.
- ✗Resale value trails Bobcat and Cat CTLs, so the lower purchase price is partly offset by a bigger depreciation hit.
- ✗Some owners report electronic and sensor issues on FPT-engined machines that can be tricky to diagnose without a good dealer.
- ✗The attachment and used-implement ecosystem isn't as deep as Bobcat's, limiting options in certain markets.
- ✗Fit-and-finish is judged by some operators as a step below Cat and Bobcat refinement.
- ✗Dealer support quality varies widely by region, and owners say the ownership experience depends heavily on the local dealer.
ASV RT-75
- ✓The Posi-Track undercarriage with independent torsion axles delivers what owners universally call the best ride in the industry, floating over ruts and rubble that hammer rigid-undercarriage machines.
- ✓Ground pressure as low as the mid-3 psi range lets it work wet turf, bogs, and snow that would strand a Bobcat or Cat, which is the whole reason many owners buy ASV.
- ✓The 15-inch ground clearance is roughly double most competitors, so it crawls over stumps and rocks without high-centering.
- ✓The Cummins QSF2.8 is a proven, widely-serviced engine, and owners like having a common powerplant that any diesel shop can support.
- ✓The open-rail undercarriage design sheds mud and debris instead of packing it, cutting daily cleanup time in sloppy conditions.
- ✓The 125.5-inch hinge-pin height is unusually tall for a radial machine, so it loads trucks better than most radial-lift rivals.
- ✓Track speed tops out well above most CTLs, and operators moving material across big sites appreciate the genuinely fast travel.
- ✓ASV's rubber tracks run cooler and are backed by a strong track warranty, and turf-focused operators report minimal lawn damage.
- ✗The Posi-Track undercarriage has far more moving parts than a steel-embedded design, and mechanics grumble that wheels, bearings, and bogies add up to serious rebuild costs at high hours.
- ✗Replacement tracks and undercarriage components are expensive and more specialized than commodity CTL parts, so owners must budget for them upfront.
- ✗ASV's dealer network is much thinner than Bobcat or Cat, and support quality varies a lot by region — a recurring complaint in owner forums.
- ✗The radial lift path limits reach at full height compared to vertical-lift competitors, making high-sided truck loading less convenient.
- ✗Resale value trails the big brands because the used market for ASV is smaller and buyers fear undercarriage rebuild costs.
- ✗Winter freeze-up in the undercarriage is a known headache, with owners in cold climates reporting ice-packing issues the design can't fully avoid.
- ✗The cab, while improved in the Max-Series, is still judged a step behind Cat and Bobcat for fit-and-finish.
- ✗Derailment can occur if track tension isn't maintained diligently, and inexperienced operators report throwing tracks in aggressive side-hill work.
