I’d very much love to see a D6C with rops ,sweeps and engine enclosures. With or without a winch. Doesn’t matter about blade type. Angle I guess would be preferable though. Ofcourse I don’t decide what’s built but it’d be nice
I agree with D6C. They made over 13,000. I owned one of last one made with a 13,000 s/n. Other 2 I was 10K 9,000 s/n and a 76A 2,000 s/n. One of Cats best machines ever.
