Ya man looks good!! Its even better if you ride in it. It will put you back in the seat. :jawdrop:
 
NICE! :cheers:
You can see you wear the pants in your house. :cheers:

I do wear the pants here but I don't get a new truck for a few more years.
I didn't pull out years ago, so I'm paying child support. lol a little.
Here's one of my trucks minus the chipper truck.

Thankfully Cat re-designed their Track system recently because I hate their old track machines! Those "Uchi's" are seriously awesome! I've run the t-180's and a few Uchis in the same day and felt that the takeuchi was even a better machine than the Bobcat t-180....I don't remember the model of the uchi I was running unfortunatel.

Sweet truck Catman! Too bad emission standards choked Caterpillar to the point of removing all their on-road diesel motors :( I guess we can thank the Democrats for that. Fortunately those yellow offroad motors are still stomping around in the dirt.....that and I got one of the last ones in my KW roll-off truck. A good ol' yeller c-13!

Do you have a front end leveling kit on it? If so which and how does it ride?
Click to expand...

Yes - I have a single add-a-leaf on the front. I don't really think it affected the ride much at all - it really doesn't ride any differently that my buddies stock truck. That big heavy diesel hanging on the front end keeps the stock ride even with the added springs!! :laugh:
