I think I've used that line as well, but never for something that big!
I only have a little more than 100 acres, and i still don't think I would get tired of it-ever.

I have 3200 acres of playground, which should be sufficient. 🤠

I don't think that is what the wife meant when she said prune the trees in the back yard .

I went with a friend to northern MN to look at 3 small dozers a few years back... that part of the state is all trees, but all three houses we stopped at had perfectly flat yards without a single tree :D I guess I know why they were selling them :D :D

That is a very large toy!
Running a toy that big will make a man feel very powerful and believe me, you are very powerful in a rig like that.
Wishing you great enjoyment as you hone your operating skills!

A little bit too large for my flat ;)
A friend of mine works with such tools and his hobby consists in... driving his replica !

When you get tired of your new toy, just send it on to me, please.😇
I don’t think I will ever get tired of it!
Now I am on the hunt for a 250 gallon Mobile Diesel Fuel tank to be able to Fuel it.

When I told my wife that I bought it she asked me why. I replied, “because I can”. 🤠

I had the opportunity to purchase a CAT D6T for the depreciated book value.
Our leasing company has owned it since it was brand new and we do all of our own service and repair.
It is a 2014 CATERPILLAR D6T XW CRAWLER DOZER: CAB, A/C, CAT C9.3 ACERT 229 HP DIESEL ENGINE, 6-WAY STRAIGHT BLADE, 30" SBG, 3 POCKET MSR, FRONT SWEEPS, REAR SCREEN and has 8300 hours on it.
I always wanted one....so, I bought it. 🤠
