    Interesting. In Ky the humidity and precipation here would have reduced it to iron oxide by now. I did not know dozers ever had PTO. I have often wondered if a dozer could ever be used to pull a bush hog (rotatary mower).

    Man illl tell ya what I have mad respect for operators that's had to run like old cable dozers and what not, its not easy when ur machine has fourteen levers and six pedals u gotta use at the same time. We got it easy these days with everything being hyd.

    Yes, and doesn't that seat look comfy? Hit a bump in reverse, and fall under the tracks. At least it has air conditioning.

    When that seat pivots a little bit when you are sitting on it , it will pinch the inside of your leg and leave bruise that will last for a month ! If you ever had it happen you will never forget.

    Been done. IH for sure, along with 3 point on a couple of small models like the 340. BTW, does anybody think the seat got that dent with operator still in it? Nice looker for sure, and obviously it runs.
