Start of the New Building

Got a project that you are working on that is not a tractor? Maybe a barn to hold your tractors or just fun stuff like woodworking, glass, tools, sheds, gardens, custom implements, etc., this is the place to talk about it.

The load was about 10,000 lbs, the truck has an Allison transmission with a braking system in it to help slow you down, that works great, it also has an 8.1 gas guzzler with lots of power so I had no problem moving it, truck still got 9 mpg pulling it which I thought was pretty good seeing how it gets 11-12 most of the time

Had to pull in an excavator to bust up some of rock so the dozer can get everything spread out the way I want it, shale and rock are normal in this area in NY, was not bad, only 4 hours of digging got it all dug out, now back to the dozer

TD 7/8 - one of the best medium dozer's ever built. Love it compared to the Cat's or JD's. Got me hundreds of hours on a TD 7/8 building the road out back. Enjoy Tim .. great toy to play with.
