the 299 is suspended. rides good empty, but is terrible loaded. i run case tv 380's and like them. the guy i work with has cat 279 and 289. the cat cabs are horrible. the doors and doorseals must have been an afterthought. it also takes alot of power to run the hydraulics on the cat. the deere is a good solid machine in my opinion over the cat.
