Thanks for the videos on this machine, the QC and thumb install. I'm thinking of buying one of these used for my property and seeing the machine and upgrades up-close is very helpful. Cheers from Pennsylvania
I'm looking at something like that.. it's a 2017 cat 303.5 with a thumb, also come with a 24inch tooth bucket.. has 3,100 hours on it and they want 35,000 for it what do you think?
With a cab? It really depends on the wear the machine is showing. There could be a machine with a 1000 hours and be wore out. So really you need to get on and operate it for a god 30 minutes and see how it does and look at if after you run it. Look for leaks or wierd sounds stuff like that. Make sure there is no slip in the bushings and pin.

@weightbuilddig166 yes it does have a fully enclosed cab.. I'll definitely look out for that stuff!
