Hi, Folks.
Here izza link to a video featuring a Cat D9L dozer - - - - with extras. At around 2.22, you can see some 'green' to the left of the D9L as it is being parked. That 'green' is two Komatsu D155 underwater dozers. You seldom see much mention of any of them, let alone two in the same yard.



Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

Always wished I had a D9. I could build pasture roads in hours rather than days like with the D4.

Hi, D4Jim.
Funny thing about a D9 compared to a D4 - in some places, you only need to turn around twice in the same spot with a D9 and you'll have a hole that a D4 would be battling to climb out of.

Well, that might be a 'SLIGHT' exaggeration but D9s sure do move a LOTTT more dirt a LOTTT quicker than a D4.

I guess that's why we have 'em - people ran out of patience with D4s.

Just my 0.02.

You have a wonderful day. Best wishes. Deas Plant.

After operating my D7E with angle blade then getting on my 7U with angle blade, the D4 is like operating a miniature D7E, of coarse no turbo or powershift.
