As an operator of most of the big equipment I would be happy on all these machines. Once they get under our skins anything smaller just won't do. The thought of retirement just terrifies me.
Caterpillar did offered a D12 from 1986-1990 there are 6 in Canada and the difference between the d11n and the d12 was very small the power plant was the only real difference the size was the same D12 was just re-numbered to the d11R because of the very small differences but you can go to Alberta and find 4 that still carry the D12 on them and there are 3 in Ontario that I know of and they where sold By R-angus in Edmonton and where assembled by my Father onsite .....so in actuality all it really was was a D11 with a larger powerplant due to a demand in the mining industry of the north for ripping the perma frost of the north and ripping the clay of Alberta to get to the surface oils and coal and thats why they are rare and hard to find
you know jets are terrible for pulling? Heres a good example push your hardest against air.... yeah,, no torque.... the equivelent is a turbine, they run the way you want.... actually drive a shaft. and the only reason you see jets accelerater is because the have more thrust then weight.....so "pushing again the wind is more like 2000 fold
D12 is not really a production, but you can read about it in Australia, they stretch the frame and go from a 850hp V8 to a 1250hp V12 and add a cooling radiator for the transmission, a real beast.
Interesting stuff: but what about / where does it fit in : Euclid, Deere & IH when you mention Komatsu & our JCB .... Poclain & Liebherr too for all that ..
The D11 must have hit a sweet spot in terms of demand. The biggest bulldozer that it's practical for customers to use, or something like that. Komatsu only ever built 53 D575As, vs 6,000 D11s. If CAT built a D12, it would presumably suffer from the same lack of demand that capped D575A production at 53.
I'm British and no matter how much money I won, the LAST machine I'd buy would be JCB. I worked for two large housing developers in he early 2000's. The first ran all Hitachi equipment, I never met the fitter. The second ran all JCB - We were all on first name terms with their fitters.
Case DL550b compact dozer loader, Cat 140 with hydraulic control sticks, cat 310 excavator, John Deere 410 backhoe, morooka tracked dumper, and maybe a cat d6 high track.
I would definitely buy a Cat D6N lgp, nowadays i think they call it D5, and a Liebherr loader, something under 20 tons, just because the 541 was the first machine I ever operated, back in the distant 1993, 13 years old. I would need a excavator, maybe two, a rubberduck, maybe a Liebherr, just because O&K aren't around anymore, and a 349 Cat, amazing machine, very stable and nice to run. Besides that maybe a couple Volvos A25s and a nice Cat 14M. I'm laughing, it's interesting how machines get into your blood, and one can never let go
I owed the 3 old cat 235 B cats ,rented p.c.400 Komatsu excavator s when digging in rock great machine.putting big 10 foot Dia culverts,and deep trunk sewers good machine
YES was waiting for someone to remember the first line (235 & 245) CAT excavator, I remember them, that steering stick was unique. I worked on mainline sewers in 1979. We had a BE-350 Excavator, man that backhoe was powerful. I ran a 190 Dynahoe digging the sidesewer stubs behind the beast. I Loved the Dynahoe 19 feet digging depth and just bear for Stout. It was the only backhoe that could take a breaker hammer abuse all day long. I bought a 1978 Dynahoe-190 in 2003, for my own toy, it has close to 9000 hours on her today, never have done any overhaul to that old 353 Detroit Diesel. I also own a 8V-71 Detroit in my 1971 SeaGrave Fire Engine 🚒 that I let kids sit in cab at public events or old car shows. Both the Detroit Diesel scream when running. my favorite sounding Diesel Engine ❤😊
I lived near Loma Prieta, the highest point in the Santa Cruz Mtns, and across from Loma Chiquita, with Uvas ck between us.. A guy had a D11, he was 70ish, had run it for many years. in 1997-8 He went down Loma Chiquita and was grading down a slope, into the San Andreus Fault/Uvas Creek. Kinda steep grade, his engine faultered so he dropped the blade and set it for parking and walked up the hill a bit and turned around to see his D11 going ass over heals into Uvas, a good 2400ft down down the slope. Where it sat until c.2008 when someone graded a rd thru the Svedal area and took it away. You could see it on google earth until then.
haha and I'm proud to just have acquired my first ... D2! I remember when the D10 was the new sensation - all the talk was about how it was going to be transported - taking off the running gear and blade, etc and transporting it on multiple lowboys. That was a long time ago.
Oh, winning a couple hundred million in a lottery..... Time to buy a county, or major chunk of one. Then I would have all the space I would need for my next purchases.
this is not an actual D12. there is not D12's. Its a modified D11 by Don Mearns for broad acre farming blade plough application. the only thing D12 is the stickers that he puts on them as a joke.
I actually talked to a person who worked for cat and he said they tried making a d12 to compete with Komatsu's 575 dozer but he said the d12 wouldn't hold up. He said supposedly that it kept breaking driveline parts and other parts he said they scraped the project bc the machine just wouldn't hold up it couldn't withstand the weight and power. Idk if that's actually true or not but that is what the guy told me.
A very reliable source told me years ago that Cat had a D 12 prototype at their proving grounds in Arizona. You are correct, it's too large and would involve too much dismantling to move it. As for my first purchase, equipment wise, the Case DL550 Minotaur tops the list, then a Maulden maintainer. There would be a lot of small equipment of various types and brands after that. While partial to Cat, I think there a lot of other toys also..but never a Komatsu.
I just randomly learning machines are more then just a blueprint and a engine to match the job at hand. If i one the lottery it be a new Holland t7 tractor 🚜
Komatsu haa its place , yet the cabs are to hot from pilot controls heating cab and clear glass . Tint windows and redisign pilot control area for heat dispurtion .
That drag line cool do u no wot happened to(( drag line A,of spade.s use to be in UK..for 30 years.. England then got sent back to America in 1990s ps my brother in law ran 3.jcb.s in 60s uk my dad had 955 + droit. Loader
Here in Australia JCB is well known as "Just c#@t of a backhoe" haha and how true that is... Nothing like a dozer for raw power, D9 is probably my favorite as you can still float them here fully dressed, nice work horse. The 24h grader is a massive disappointment, Now i do love my graders and have operated a few 24's and yes they are an impressive piece of gear but they are severely underpowered which makes for a very frustrating environment-basically only good for shadow grading haul roads....Komatsu diggers? We all know Volvo diggers rain supreme lol nicest machines ive operated and are more in tune for operator comfort
While Caterpillar pull the plug on the 6090 the company does not have a front shovel to compete with the Komatsu PC8000,Liebherr R9800 & the Hitachi EX8000-6
Ive operated excavatorsfor 46 years and i loved the komatsu 360 until we bought several cat 336 hoes and i got one and after running it for a while i realized it was stronger down deep and also lift more weight and it could handle a larger bucket!. Our JD 470's and 870's were good strong hoes but the cat 385 was stronger but more exspensive than the 870's. We had several komatsu 650's and 1100's they were just ok!. But when you look at cost komatsu always wins!.
Yeah, this video had me curious not gonna lie. When I came across the title, I was like wait a minute did cat announce some thing that they hadn’t put on their RUclips channel yet? But when you said what you said about the D12, I was like OK I sort of guest that we weren’t gonna ever see a D12 because I actually had to correct someone a couple of years ago when the Bruder 1/16 scale D 11 T came out.
Hey you guys at cat might consider a similiar type adapter or conection peripherals connections to your machines via Adapters..or Remote wireless connectivity to such type of wired and wireless hand controllers...just a thought. I mean after TSHF...everyone will be picking up.-what-?and how...i could use a job..but im too controversial...
The D 11.wont be as famous ...D12s and their new variations. second to the D12s.. And Kamatsu will both be the greatest machines,esp.autonomously.and the need will come with WW-III...12s will come..wirh drivers,and, or remote operation, to or from other linked machines using Sony PLAYSTATIONS..or X Box ...microsoft..yuk....so with sony and play anywhere in world. autonomously or not.

Bulshit
C'est incroyable comment ces machines rendent les tâches difficiles si faciles. Le progrès technologique est vraiment remarquable. 🛠
Caterpillar rules ...built in America..and kickin ass...
Lottery Winner - I would buy a Gulfstream G650 Biz Jet - I dont pull the leavers anymore :-)

D11t. Power 🎉🎉🎉🎉
My favourite has to be the Cat 24 grader.

❤Amen 🙏 American people first
Nice information
These machines are wonderful and help people solve all difficulties
Interesting stuff: but what about / where does it fit in : Euclid, Deere & IH when you mention Komatsu & our JCB .... Poclain & Liebherr too for all that ..
Heavy machinery at its finest! Love the content.
For me it’s old iron that’s coming home. D9G n H, 46As D7Gs and D10,9 n 8Ls
I would prefer that D -11 R ....LOL ❤😊THANKS FOR SHARING !!!GREAT VIDEO 😊
Hell yeah I operate a D 11 I love it🎉🎉
I'd take the D11!😂

Dozer D-11 is the best

Can't help it but it's the D11 hands down
I would definitely buy a Cat D6N lgp, nowadays i think they call it D5, and a Liebherr loader, something under 20 tons, just because the 541 was the first machine I ever operated, back in the distant 1993, 13 years old.

What year is your D2?
Oh, winning a couple hundred million in a lottery..... Time to buy a county, or major chunk of one. Then I would have all the space I would need for my next purchases.
345👍👍
D12 otra maravilla, y todos son grandiosos equipos, saludos
Interesting , Thank You . A fine Example of Horse POWER in Action

It’s also a stretched chassis running a 3512 pushing 1250hp, so more than just a sticker.
Pretty decent video bro, thank you
Thank you for watching, and thank you for your comments buddy :)
Uh, when did Cat start production of a D12? Gonna throw my BS flag on this one.😉
@@Toonseskat Watch the video before you throw the flag
Good clip 👍
D20 more power
Gorgeous machines
SURE AS HELL MISS ACTUALLY GETTING PAID TO RUN THIS STUFF! MAKES FOR A LONG DAY BUT YOU NEVER TIRE OF IT!
CAT 6015B would be my choice with the CAT 140 motor grader second.

BUT never a Komatsu, or "used to muck" as my helper used to say..
I just randomly learning machines are more then just a blueprint and a engine to match the job at hand. If i one the lottery it be a new Holland t7 tractor 🚜
If I won a lottery, the 1st big Iron I'd buy would be a timber processor, go big or go home!!!
The sand box just keeps getting bigger!
Komatsu haa its place , yet the cabs are to hot from pilot controls heating cab and clear glass . Tint windows and redisign pilot control area for heat dispurtion .
395 with a material handler boom.
❤❤❤ Uau ,D12
Won the lottery huh? I'd be buying a CAT 6090, followed by a '70 Dodge Coronet R/T convertible in Plum Crazy Purple, and a 426 Hemi under the hood!
Olá Abraços👍 By,🌞.
D20
I operated 345b
345 B for me tks
I’d buy a fleet of trucks probably 793s and go get them put in a mine somewhere 👌
So why is it we buy big screen TV's and large monitors these days but the content producers make us watch their videos through a slat fence?
I'd buy that D11 bulldozer along with the back most powerful trucks that Kenworth has to offer to haul that beast of a bulldozer around.yeah
too bad you didn't use full screen picture
they said back in the day that a D7 would push in a day what 2, D6 would? and so on?
That drag line cool do u no wot happened to(( drag line A,of spade.s use to be in UK..for 30 years.. England then got sent back to America in 1990s ps my brother in law ran 3.jcb.s in 60s uk my dad had 955 + droit. Loader
click baiting is not good , for the description reads d12 , not happening lol
I was wondering if they brought out something new…
Cat 235 & 245. Manitowoc 4600
Landscape looks better !

Cat will garage it and work out most of the bugs before letting it lose on the streets again. Don't bring up the original D9, D10, orD11.
I used to have a person, supposed to be a friend but not ..... he operates a D13 fer the forest service back in the day......land scape changeer
Why gotta be parallel video?
first thought... clydesdale.. you can stop those things..... massive horse

Backhoe loaders are referred to as JCBs not excavators
If it is not a cat I don’t want it
ive run JCB 140 and 160 excavator and no good tech in Ontario that ive found,all are parts replacers
Hey you guys at cat might consider a similiar type adapter or conection peripherals connections to your machines via Adapters..or Remote wireless connectivity to such type of wired and wireless hand controllers...just a thought. I mean after TSHF...everyone will be picking up.-what-?and how...i could use a job..but im too controversial...
il take 2 of each
is hard to believe

Why does the 6090 have a Cummins in it
The FS6090 is actually an upgraded and repainted O&K/Terex RH400, they have used Cummins engines right from the very start
i need a D 12k
I am looking for a job as a bulldozer driver. Can you help me?
So why did you label this as a video about the D-12 when it is actually about the D 12?
there is no way that a D9 would push same as 2 D8s?
Where the hell is a massive dragline in indiana?
I had to tag & push 631s with the D11. It sucked.
D9H sorry, not sorry.
Or a D11N...
I’d buy me a 996 wheel loader. I could get shit done
Cat never made a D-12.
Yes, and shit like that 😂

336 are junk ,if u compare it 2 komatsu,no exceptions, I was on a336 for 2 yrs ,junk I tell u,even JD 350 out work it by far!!!!
The D 11.wont be as famous ...D12s and their new variations. second to the D12s..
