New Big Bud with Cat Power

Some interesting news that they are reviving the Big Bud tractor brand and building a new tractor with a Cat C-18.  I hope to get to see this one at ConExpo.  

I found it interesting that while Steiger had several models with Cat Power, up until now there was only one Big Bud model that offered a Cat Diesel in the late 1980's. 

Attached is the recent press release, as well as the spec sheet from the last Big Bud offered with Cat power.





 

70,000 lbs! Whoa.  That's a big tractor. Looking at the lterature from before, it's not quite double the weight.  For sure it's going to need a lot of HP.  Thanks for letting us in on the news.
