Hi all,
I'm hoping some of the experts here can give me some thoughts/advice. Found an old D6B at a sale not overly far from our place. I've always thought it'd be really handy to have a dozer around for some of our farm work, forestry work, and the small gravel pit we have. The only issue is this: our land is spread out in several parcels all apart from each other, and to use the dozer all around we'd need to be able to tow it down the road. Only a few miles a few times a year.
We no longer have our dump truck on the road, and never had a float large enough for a dozer. There are a few rather steep and large hills between properties, but thankfully the road is all paved anywhere we'd need to go.
I was wondering if a 70 horse tractor (White 2-70) would sufficiently haul this dozer around, up and down some hills, assuming I eventually found a suitable trailer for the dozer. I'd really appreciate any thoughts anyone has on this.
