"I bought my 580B in 1992 for about $5k total investment. I've put about 1k hours on it doing everything from digging foundations to planting trees, and it's been extremely reliable.
I got a chance to use a late model Cat 426 several years ago, and while the Cat certainly has a nice, quiet cab, I thought my 580 had just as much digging power. It's a good solid machine. "
REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Pros: Digging power, reliability.Cons: Noisy cab, no AC.Type of User: Homeowner 1-10 AcresLocation: USA WYI also considered buying: Case 580 Super K REVIEWER'S PHOTOS

"This tractor has been good to me. It's old (probably an antique). I use it to load my sawmill and other chores around the property, like plowing snow. It's about worn out though.
Right now I'm replacing the head gasket and fixing the throttle linkage. It needs most of the bushings replaced and it has no brakes. So I think I'll make use of this forum because I'm a woodworker not a mechanic, and will need all the help I can get."
REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Pros: Still runs.Cons: Not 4WD, old, no cab.Type of User: Homeowner 10-50 AcresLocation: USA CTI also considered buying: Kubota BX2360 REVIEWER'S PHOTOS

"I have owned and operated 3 580C backhoe loaders. A very reliable machine. Has its limits when digging as to dumping products. The excavators that can turn around definitely has an advantage. But the Case has the advantage of loading hauling in much less time."
REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Pros: Very dependable, can move on the road. load trucks.Cons: Turning radius on backhoe, 2 wheel drive.Type of User: Homeowner 1-10 AcresLocation: USA MEI also considered buying: REVIEWER'S PHOTOS
