I have sir and the power stroke is a good pulling engine, but the only reason I said the idi for him was repair costs, my truck for example, we had a D-9 CAT on it, the other day, two tons of fertilizer in the back and hooked to the goose neck, we had 10 1 ton bags of fertilizer and it pulled it. Slow but it done it, I was just trying to kindly make a good point, it's just in my mind, cost or ownership and repairs over the long hual.

You sir are full of ****.

You put a D-9 on any trailer that your truck can hook to, and your 10.25 rear end will spit its guts about 30' in each direction...

You could have at least lied something that was remotely possable, a D4... Maybe even a JD650... but you did not put a D-9 on anything.

I had 26.5k on my flat bed once too...

But a D-9 weighs in over 100,000 pounds...

Someone just stepped in bullshit so deep he cant see to swim out of it. Bet he has never even seen one, let alone spent countless hours on one...



Thats 26k on...thats only about 75k less then an D-9...

I forgive ya for your comment sir I'm a good christian, and I wouldnt lie and if my grandpa says it pulled a D-9 dozer, I beleave him they moved it down the road 10 mils to another site they were working on. All flat road. I'm just saying what he told me sir. Everything we hauled or moved is the truth and I don't lie sir, I dont believe in it. I looked at the video you put up, and only now do I see that the dozer my grandpa was talking about might have been a D-4. Hope this clears up the confusion?

Sir I have been on them as a kid but I'd love to get the chance to really run one, that'd be a dream come true.
