Yesterday on Foxlive watched it in action at the Hughes fire making lines right next to massive flames. Awesome machine.

Marvin would be proud of a dozer like that. If you know you know!

Good job very impressive tractor, bulldozer, caterpillar. I like all the air conditioning and all the NASA stuff inside her to find fires, now I'm watching the fire in LA and I show this on TV so it gives me an idea of what they're doing all those roads I see on TV on the tops of the mountain where do they go went up now my other fire trails could have the top of the ridges

“It weighs more than a tank” is incorrect a D8 R fire dozer weighs approximately 90, 000 pounds while an M1 A2 sep V3 Abrams is significantly over 140, 000 pounds. and even the lightest modern day MBT’s are still over 100, 000 pounds.

That smoke isn’t California compliant.

I saw these in action recently on Magic Mountain Truck Trail.

These are cool and informative. Please create more of these. Please do some of the aircraft and Sheriff’s vehicle (SWAT, rescue trucks or Bomb Squad)

Thank God that dozer is certified dirty idle instead of that CARB bullshit. We need it to be actually reliable.

I'm assuming the second seat is for a navigator, comms?

OpRR-

I think is BS that they don’t have emissions equipment on their stuff but the rest of the state and US is forced to have it on their own cars/trucks. They should have to deal with the same headaches that are associated with that stuff as the rest of the state and US.
