Billy you dont know how torn asunder I was when I drove through Romsey last Sun morn and saw that the Mud drags were on. I did curse and thought seriously about turning right but carried on and still had a great day.
At the mud bash there 2 years ago they managed to get a CAT articulated loader bogged. It had built the track and was being used as a recovery vehicle but need recovering itself part way through the day by a couple of comp vehicles! Serious mud pits conquered by sheer horespower and piloted by absolute lunatics.

I've operated a D6, articulated loaders, numerous bobcats and miniloaders, a 30ton Hitachi excavator but the D9 would be so much fun in the push and shove department.
This bad boy would make landscaping and demolition a shit load easier. Floating the bugger around might be a bit exxy though.

I use to float em around. I only occasionally got time to play........ most of the time it was just on and off the float.....

Big suckers like that last one we used to float in pieces. Here is a boom arm off an 850 tonner
