Cat 973D Track Loader First Look
Our first lookat the 973D Track Type Loader. Everyone knows Burnouts love for all things 973 and here is the newest of the breed. We go through a quick overview of the machine and hope everyone enjoys. This is our first look but definately not the last time you’ll see the 73D.
Translating...

@EarthmoverEd Depends on your preference. The new front engine units especially the late C and D series are like sports cars. The old front engine units push great, but when it comes to speed, maneuverability and hydraulic performance they leave they’re older front engines counterparts in the dust.
What is a better track loader, the old front engined machines, or the hydrostatic drive ones like this in the video?
@gangesexcavating hy add me as a friend
your company should get one!!!hahaha
@d9andy992 No… as we have stated before they have no practical use for water and sewer.
are u getting a clam bucket for it?
The ripper makes a great bumper and they need bumpers there LOL
I can’t get over the language these viewers use here. I’m enjoying that I took my videos private 2 years ago. How in the heck can I let my son read this garbage that some folks write on here. It’s really bad. That Theoman fellow has a terrible mouth on here. I swear too but there is a time and place for everything. Please think before you type as there are kids reading this too….not just the apparent ill-educated hillbillies.
good looking unit
The first 973 was introduced 30 years ago in 1981
You tell them cocksuckers you are coming back to get a video of the inside of the cab wether they like it or not…YARRRRRR!!!!!

The zed bar, eh? lol, nice walk around, how how about that big orange majigger in the background?!
