Truck: by the power vested in me by twenty one years of dirt moving with heavy equipment, raise your dozer arm to shoulder hieght, and your left arm to steering clutch level, with eyes straight ahead, fixed on that huge pile of dirt in front of the blade, solomly swear to keep clean tracks, a full fuel tank,and a smooth pass, so help me doze. Walk proudly Truck, you are now an official, Cat Skinner! Well I don't know about all that, but it certainly is a good feeling to be able to move a reasonably good load of product and put it where you want it without all that spinning and bucket bounce of a wheeled tractor. Each machine has its place. As you have probably read here somewhere, I own a TD91 IHC, I wouldn't trade for anything, though a 142 or a 182 would realy be a nice addition, these machines might have some age, but they are still willing to go to work,and capable! Just need a little more time and TLC. A small hint, don't try to level an area with an empty dozer, always do your leveling by pushing about a half, or better, load of dirt, it will take a while to get the hang of it, but it sure makes controling the machine a lot easyer, Have a gooder "C.S." Lotsa Luck, G.
