I just posted looking for history on Ventracs. I have a steiner 410 and have a wet area in the spring. I just avoid it because the machine and deck in heavy. (about 1400 lbs)It will make small ruts. If you used duals on either machine it probably be better than another other machine on the planet. I've owned my steiner since 96 and its been a great machine. I've had two repairs which I wasn't happy about but machines are machines. Having owned a steiner the Ventrac apears to be what a cadilac is to a chevy. The Steiner brother's built the ventrac to improve on the machines they previously built which was the Steiner line. I have toured both factories and was really impressed with the improvement that ventrac made. The main thing is the oil filtration and having the tank above the pump to avoid any chance of pump scavanging air. Plus, from the driver standpoint its much more comfortable. I only drove the ventrac in the dealers parking lot compared to the 300 hours on my steiner. Bottom line for me is unless someone has a compelling story against the Ventrac I am trading in my Steiner. By the way I live on a steep hill and bars tires will slide sideways as you progess forward. The new tire design from Ventrac was designed to avoid that.

Is there any more feedback on the Ventracs. I'm thinking of trading my Steiner 410 in on one. At 300 hours I just replaced two front axles for a whopping $690.00. The dealer said Peerless made some bad axles in 96 and I probably got some.Maybe two more on the back. I contacted the Ventrac company on there website requesting a visit to the factory as I live very close. I received a call from the President of the company, Dallas Steiner. He was very polite and conducted the tour himself. I was impressed with everything I saw. To me it seems the Steiner Brothers started Ventrac to make all the improvements that the new owners of Steiner didn't want to make.
