CAT D11R. Watch as I meet with the Fowler Brothers and ask them all about this massive machine and what it takes to deep rip the ground in preparation for an almond orchard.
To say these machines are massive is an understatement. Most people don’t consider this a farm tractor, but here in California, we do. Tell the Fowler Brothers California Farmer sent you!
Com: Syd: For slow ripping in such an open area, I’d modify the air intake with a stack that gets engine air from ABOVE the dust line. I wouldn’t care if the stack was 30 feet high.
Com:Wize: A 3208 has 636 cubic inches where a 3508 has 2105 cubic inches. Just a little difference in horse power. Love that yellow iron
