Fecon FTX 148-L

About to purchase the Fecon FTX 148-L. It is a new model with a very interesting track system. Anybody out there have one that can give some input on how they hold up, pull, ect.....Or for that reason, any input on the machine.

I do not have any experience on the new Fecon you are talking about. however, our local dealer has sold 3 or 4 of them already. The mechanins tell me they have some soncern about the track system, but only time will tell how that holds up.
I do have over 800 Hrs. of seat time of the FTX 140, (since Jan.), but it is a really different machine than this new one. Let us know how the new machine works out for you.

Jeff, thanks for the reply. Is there any way you could get me in touch with the people who bought them. I really want to talk to someone who actually runs one. I demo'ed the unit and loved it...comfortable, strong, ate the woods up. I just have never seen tracks like that before. My salesman says no problem and really cheap to fix, which is a plus. I will pm you with my #. thanks.
