I''d say that counts
I don't seem to have any photos of it in its normal dirty state, just a token drive-up-a-bank from the day I bought it. Should probably take it somewhere interesting and take some better photos.

It's a lot faster in reverse, you have to be very careful when people are working/walking around site.Quote:

Swamp tracks or Apex shoes.
I imported this late model low hour dozer late last year. Only using this machine for one job to push 15,000 tonne of imported metal prep and will put up for sale in a few months, I'm quite impressed with it but we haven't got enough ongoing work to warrant keeping it. We will make a bit of dough on the sale price as well. We then tip the dough into a new digger. Never ending merry go round.
Still living your childhood......only the toys and sandpit are bigger
Cant have enough toys, I dont throw many of them out of the cot.
