Thanks for posting the number. I looked at several HD-5's and 6's last summer but did not find one with this type dozer. Hopefully they will return my calls.

Coke, I live about 10 miles from it and have called the number and left a message if the dozer was for sale, I never heard from them.

Seen several things setting around the area and the dozer is closer to Hi 29 in the weeds , might be fence area between the weeds and horse area so could be 2 different places also , could not tell from road .

Well, you could always call and say "I saw your horses for sale sign, Just wondering what is available, give me a call at ________." Maybe they would call you back, the worst they could do is hang up or maybe tell you what they know about the dozer.

I'd say, give me the dozer and I'll take your horses off your hands. Dig a hole with the dozer and the horses are gone and you got yourself a dozer. Now I'm sure some brown eye loving activist has an issue with this. But, around here people can't give them away. People have rented out pasture for horses, paid a couple of months and then just walked away and the land owner is stuck with the horses. Some have dropped their horses off at parks and just let them go. My neighbor ended up with horses that his renter didn't want any more. At least his renter asked him if he wanted them.

As a note I worked on a horse farm while in high school for one summer. SO..my view is slightly off kilter anyway.

I know what you mean Byron. My sister picked up a really nice Tennessee Walker horse for free for my other sister cause the place where it was boarded before the previous owner was so far behind in boarding charges that they acquired ownership of the horse for the back charges. I have to laugh when I hear what my sister pays for boarding her horses, it's like $200-250 per horse and she has two horses there. I used to let her keep her horse here for free, and she paid for the hay for my wifes' and her horse each year in return. Boy, was I a dummy!!

As a friend's wife was told at the tack store, "Lady, the horse is the cheapest park of the deal!" It is more true now then ever.

I looked at the HD-5 on Saturday. It has seen better days. Parts only i'm afraid.

Least it might be a doner machine for someone in area that can use something .
