Hi, do you have a website?

What's the price?.

Oh I'm sorry I bought a brand new st50 biggest piece of s*** I ever seen it's in the shop more then my home they have put over 40 hours on this new machine theirselves and still comes back doing the same old s*** it is a big pile of s*** and a waste of time buy something else

Awesome!

its not a semi U blade its a straight blade

There is nothing like a brand new CAT machine. I have had the privilege of taking several off the trailer and operating them. Just wearing the yellow off of the blade and tracks is too much fun. I remember when the City (NYC) bought 110 D8L's, and had them lined up in the parking lot, waiting for new blades. (Some were equipped with blades, and some would be tasked to pull Athey wagons, at Fresh Kills Landfill.) Caterpillar let the City "spec out" the machines, so they were delivered with 440hp, high RPM, V8 engines. IMHO, the D8, is a little light, I like the D9 better. But, my favorite dozer is the CAT D6 LGP, with the extreme duty tracks, and the 6 way blade. That machine is solid as a rock, smooth as silk, and tighter than a frogs butt. The best general purpose, all around machine, ever made. Good luch with your machine.

What are the S/Ns?

That orange paint might mean they were originally owned from new by Wimpeys from the UK who had a large fleet and sold them off in the middle eightys?

Such a masculine exhaust note

Killdozer!

A good-looking machine. The paint scheme is very Caterpillar-esque.

Fantastic video, well done. Its a great shame to see old iron just wasting away like that. Owner needs to find a shed and stick them in it until he has the will to do something with them.

Other than black out lights, color, data plates, and probably emissions delete... any other notable differences?

Where at

From England great set of Grousers on the tracks and it has a tubed fuel tank for a CCU.

Where is this farm park located?

Looks ain't where it's at ,,will it push,D6T,s we're weak as he'll no power ,as to the one I was sit,n in ,D6R,s were lot better,but there's better machines on the market,try Case ,or John Deere!!!!

The end was when they quit making the 6R

The Cat logo is unchanged since 1989, the "trade dress" has been changed multiple times since then, 89 to 91 they were a little lost but in 91 they landed on what is known as the "Beltline" trade dress, identified by the thin red line along the bottom of the decal, 2006 saw the next iteration known as the "Power Edge" trade dress signified by a thick red section on a 45 degree angle on the decal and and then in 2019 we got the next change of the trade dress to the current "Modern Hex" version. What is further confusing is the suffix change and the association of the modern hex trade dress with "next gen" models and upgrades. Lets get this straight, the MH trade dress does not signify a "next gen" model, nor in some cases does the dropping of the letter suffix mean it is a new model!!. Cat has caused a lot of confusion in this space with there directives and changes and you really need to dig into it to understand it.

I've always thought of a 8 being the smallest large dozer and the 6 as the largest small machine

One of the Best D6 dozers Caterpillar has made. 👍👍

These models have a great body design. But the cabs are no good. The seat mounted controls rattle a lot. The window glass traps dirt between the panels and scratches the glass really bad over time. The side glass is really too tall in my opinion. The cab doors are really thin and don't seal well if washing with a water truck cleaning it. Body is good but the cab is cheapish.

By the way, this is not the Next Gen dozer. We call it the D8 nomenclature in CAT. Basically, its an improved D8T without the T in the name. Next Gens will be out soon!

The D6T XW is my absolute favorite dozer. The 2018 I ran was a total unit running a big fill

D6d was the first 6 I ran .. I love the D6 series .. I miss the suffix after the number that was just a good way of badging machines in my opinion 🤷🏻… Another awesome video man I love coming to see what I know and learn what I don’t .. I love equipment and I love learning all about it !!! Thanks for another great video man !!!

Do you prefer the v pattern and foot control vs pilot stick drive control? I’ve often wondered why not go to the newer pilot if it’s available

Remember The First time Trying one , No De Accelerator Threw me Off , But Really Loved the Power It had

Great video! I had a quick look around the same machine and did a short video. You did a much better job! I'm still learning.

Thanks for the tour!

PARECE QUE ESPAÑA LE GUSTA TODO SE LE PONE UNA BANDERA ROJA

Looks pretty good, are they going to be putting some new tires on that?

Great video! I enjoyed the side by side of the 12H as it shows how close these are . The main reason CAT went to the M series was to provide the total electronic control for more precise and automatic grade control functions. The 140 and the old 12H must have addition valves added to operate grade functions and then it can only work on the lift and lower of the left and right lift cylinders. The biggest complaint about the M series, was the fear of using the stick steering control when traveling at full speed. It can be rough to get accustomed to control. The M series is best for larger companies need grade control all the time and the H or new 140 best for smaller companies that never use automatic grade control. Also, the productions has been moved for some of these to offer more cost savings. This 2022 model (N94 prefix) was built at Cat Brasil Ltda.- Piracicaba. I think it would be great if you can add the source of the factory posted on the serial number tag when possible. Looking forward to your next video!

Won’t be long until that machine needs some undercarriage work I’m not a fan of the new logo and other changes

I thought a D9 was big but this thing is a beast!!

Cutting Edge Engineering rebuilds parts of this dozer, and are HUGE.

WHAT A BLADE!!!!!! Love the way it looks, the ones we got to see where always rusted out so I never got to appreciate them. Beach dozers.... rust raining from the ceiling hahaha

Love the D6K2, so much fun to rip around in!!! Wide tracked little guy, love it. Great video as always! Feels like I'm out there inspecting it with ya!

Bulldozers are neat machines😂

I work in a landfill, usually run a D6T XL but it was out getting a power train rebuild so we had a D7E until it was done, as someone who has alot of time behind a dozer, I will say this dozer it's just a pushing S.O.B I still like my 6T more but it will move material without an issue, I love the D7E though it's just a nice looking dozer

Ur half rht half wrong,on D6k,there junk to a Deere 4 sure

Man I love your videos .. I am an equipment fanatic and I love learning about all models and series machines … You do an awesome job explaining things to people that might not have as much knowledge about these machines .. And sometimes you know things that I don’t !! Keep up the great work my friend. Appreciate you taking time to make these videos ..

fade away like the trucks did cat lots of problems last few yrs

poor resaile nobody knows how to fix

they were good but hard to work on bad centre pin blade design

TERRA= earth & REX = King ....Hence Terex as the Earth King

Now I will argue with you all day long you saying a flat track style dozer will out push a high track,,

Ran 5-6m models. Sucks

The quarry had a 6-R that was a good tractor but I'd soon run a 6-C if it had been 'tuned' a little. I ran a 5 that wpould poutpush an 850 JD EASY nd a 7-E in the SArmy that was a BULL! I jhate wrist shifters too and just as soon have a powershift. Thanks!
