A local man that ran dozers for many years has just retired. He has a Cat D6D(actually he has 2 of them) that he has had for several years. It was used when he bought it. He was the owner/operator and took very good care of his equipment. He did all his own mechanic work and replaced anything that appeared worn.
It has OROPS and limb risers- never had lights) . The fluids look really good. No leaks.
This dozer has 80% or better undercarriage. Less than 2,000 hours on the transmission and engine. New cutting edge. The dozer only shows 4,600 hours. If you want to really pick it apart it could use paint and decals. It has a minor/cosmetic dent in the fuel tank where his son backed it into a tree a few years back. It is ready to work by all appearances and I trust what he tells me is true.
He priced it at $28,000.00 delivered.
I want it to play with and do a little farm work. I will likely put less than 500 hours on it. My main concern is that I can sell it in a couple of years and be close to break even on it.
Anyone have a crystal ball? Do you think this dozer will bring close to $28,000 in 2 years?
I don't post much but really enjoy y'all. I learn a lot here.
Thanks, Greg
