Hello... I'm considering picking up another machine, and i think a 545D fits the bill. Basically looking for something with a strong loader (rated 5000 lbs @ max height), enough grunt to handle some grading tasks, and still light enough to tow around easy.

There aren't all that many left for sale, i think they stopped producing them in the early 90's. So, the pickings are fairly slim.

I'm looking for input from those of you that have experience with these machines. Were they reliable? Were they a good jobsite machine? Do they feel strong enough at 67HP? What kinds of problems did you have with them, and at how many hours?

I'm wanting the power shuttle transmission (Power Reverser) and Cab.

Thanks in advance.
