I have been around them most of my life and have run Steiger and Versatile for the last 30 years.
Of everything out there,Steiger and Versatile have always had the most simple and reliable driveline with good parts support. Stay away from anything with a V8 diesel especially the little Cat 3208 style engines.They are a sleeveless cheapo that will eat up the crank and bearings in 2500-3000 hrs of heavy lugging tillage work. The Cummins V8's were all high rpm(3000) and hard on oil/fuel
The best engine they used was the 6 cyl Cummins 855. They are reliable to 10,000 plus hrs and are a slow turning(2100),cheap running and easy/cheap engine to repair.
