Comments: - - Ain't nothing like backing up and hitting that one rock we didnt see damn near break your teeth if your shoulders close enough to your chin...yall operators know what I'm talking about
It's hard to grasp the size of these machines from videos. There's nothing like feeling the ground shake when one starts tracking towards you
Some 20000h of this.. then fresh paint and RB for sale/auction, good as new... I can't even imagine how rough times these machine go trough. That kind of fight with hard rock "24/7" really do wear stuff out.
Great footage, working real close gotta know and trust your fellow mates, love the single shank!. Why the u dozer and backing up 4 million feet for not a load?
Watching that D11 work. Made me realize that I really don’t understand just how powerful they really are. Plus that operator is one lucky man
The D11R weighs around 230,935 lb (104,750 kg)., carries 388 gallons of diesel, and requires 28 gallons of engine oil. Its about 28 feet long, 12 feet wide and 15 feet tall.
I love operating any big dozer or even a wobble stick backhoe. Really, anything that has to do with working in the dirt. The smell of new cuts, either rock or soft dirt, just makes the work so much easier. And having control of a machine that big doing the work just makes it that much better.
