Josh,

I dig the pictures. How far into the hills was that from your place? Very reminanicent of the past espically the B&W photo. You coming to Woodland? Bring one of your 2's and that arch. Would be cool to see again!

I wonder if you have Cat D8H 46A series??? If so, then what blade, angle or bull? I m curious, do you like new MT765 Cat tractors?? I wonder if you ever run Cat D6 9U? Thanks

Farmer D5: I don't recall running 9UD6, I ran a 4R series D6 though. I had an 8U D6 dozer and a 5R series D6 Dozer. The D8H is a bare tractor, which I have used in the past as a farm tractor. Not so any more. I had 3 D7 3T series at one time. Used 3T 1435 SP to farm with in summer. Helped the other 2 in the winter building stock ponds, terraces, waterways. I will try pictures again.

Farmer D5: Yes, we like th MT765's. Have 120 inch wide gauge. About 1/2 of acreage is row crop. We strip till with auto steer, with 12 row stripper and 16 row planter. The MT 765 rides better than C65. I am beginning to think the C65 cost less to maintane. I also have a late 2U D8 with straight dozer. Does your D5 have a dozer?
