I've worked on a few Case machines for my customers. Overall they seem to be well made machines, and other than the standard wear issues I've seen nothing major wrong with any of them. In many cases they run Case/Cummins engines, which is nothing but a Cummins with the Case brand on it. The only problem there is that Case knows very little about the engines, and Cummins knows nothing that they can tell because of their deal with Case. I say that, because I've been there, and done that already with a 6 cylinder, about a year ago.
Beyond that, look at availability of parts locally. For quite a few years we didn't have a local dealership to offer any kind of service support for Case, although we did have a dealership for another brand that had some sort of distribution deal and carried parts, but that's all they did.
The main thing I have seen on Case crawlers that I didn't like was that they had an foot operated accelerator for the throttle as opposed to a decelerator like most other brands. This can put many operators on a learning curve to get used to it, but in the end it's just an inconvenience more than anything else.
