Ok tight budget here. d4c older and bigger or d3g newer but smaller Look to be pretty close in hp. I have found some for under 40k, which is where I need to be. wscott
I'm on a tight budget so i just bought an old (1972) D5 50j. I looked at many dozers and decided on this because it sounded right, didnt smell of oil or hydrolic oil, didnt smoke and the track gear was in good nick. I got it cheap because it looks scruffy as it has lived in the paddock all it life. This is what i did, but my dozer is for farm use and if i bought to make a living, i may have done it differerently.
OK, Found one. Decided on a 2005 D3G XL 47 HP Meets the budget and the weight and the HP.
Nice machine I think It's closer to 77 hp though.
Ha thats funny typo- i ment 77hp thanks
I have the same year and model. Was wondering what you paid for it. I am thinking of selling mine or trading it towards a loader. I bought it new and it has 1600hrs . Thanks, doug
nicce machine
Is that Artec Tractor in Navoo, AL? How many hours on the D3G, it looks like it's in good shape.
Sure is Cm1995. 900 hours They are great to work with so far. Artec that is. Have you heard anything about them? All ive heard is good things.
Well I haven't heard any bad things, never had any dealings with them. I know that they have grown in their size over the last few years. They started out selling grey market Japanese farm tractors and mini-ex's and have since branched into the used equipment market. They are 80-100 miles north of me.
