Perhaps some confusion is from differences in weight units. He is probably talking about metric tons and we are probably citing US tons. Just a guess.

Hi Ken. The EEC metric system uses the U.S Ton at 2000 lbs, and specifically excludes the use of the "Long Ton" 2240 lbs.

So the machine weights I quoted are correct.

Cheers

Come on IH, it's moist sand.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

dozerbilder, have you operated a dozer much less an RC one ? For craps sake , it's a lil grading machine the size of a d6 maybe . They're not designed for bull work unless you put a semi-u blade on it . Ever seen a 6 way blade tore apart from doin shyt its not designed to doo ?

PS:By lil dozer , I mean in the vid you posted;)

to add , I'd much rather push the loose sand with my D6 and leave the rocky hard pan stuff to my TD40B (D10 size ).

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Steady up ihbuilder,

I never mentioned any of the issues you have raised here. I asked one question, and it was to Premacon, not you. The question remains unanswered.

Given the tone and language of your post here, please understand that I have no intention of allowing myself to be dragged into an online argument with you. Thank you for your understanding. Cool off a bit, smile, and go and push a few blade-fulls of rocky hard pan with all that experience of yours. :):):)

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Sorry what question do you mean?

Don't stop. Seen it happen before

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

I have rw looking into that hook up you talked about hopefully it will help both dozers out.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Dozer looks and works great Frank :) Those rippers are really effective! Have you come up with a price tag for the dozer ?

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Not trying to stir anything up but it looks impressive to me. Check out the new video that just got posted.

On a side note, I just met Mr. Willi Liebherr today and took a photo with him at the Minexpo Las Vegas.
Super nice gentleman! The new 776 looks amazing in person.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

If I could spend Premacon $$ i would get it. Looks hot.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Yeah it'll work beautifully on a heavy tractor like yours. Any idea what your all up weight will be?

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

any idea how much would it cost?

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

No pricing yet I believe.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

i'm guessing around 8000$-10000$.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Looks and performs great!

About 110-115 pounds I think.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Wow! Autopilot is a great model engineering evolution. It looks like it has a very powerful and well designed drive train. According to the discription, it has a planetary drive system and looks very powerful.:jaw::jaw::jaw:

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

I could not get much info on the machine because Premacon doesn't have it in it's shop as a product yet.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

100 + pounds no thanks, good luck with your back if you buy this one... The machine is sure smooth though, but my Eagle Dozer is right at 50Lbs, and it pushes plenty at that weight.

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

The liebherr does weigh more but that will give it better traction and from many videos on YouTube, it is very powerful. It ripped up a compacted dirt road at an RC construction site on premacon's YouTube channel

Looks like the price has been confirmed ..basic model with pretty much nothing $7295.00 euro $8013 us and $10,740 CAD
Better be sitting down for this ..fully loaded Model with all the bells and whistles
$ 15,563 Euro $17027 Us - VAT = $13.792 and $22829 CAD take off the Vat $18,500 CAD + shipping ouch

Re: New Dozer from Premacon
 

Wow that's getting right up there! But I can't even imagine what they would charge for a scraper like yours Lou. The complexity and quality of your build reproduced by a company like that would put the price off the charts, not that 18K for a model isn't already.
