These big models stand at approximately 7.7″ at the top of the ROPS canopy, this impressive model reaches 18.1″ long and 11″ wide. Two models have been produced, one with a U-blade and single shank ripper attachment, the other is a Carrydozer with Multi-shank ripper version which we have here for a model review. Put into context, a family diesel car achieving 50mpg and traveling 10,000 miles per annum will go for 60 years on this level of fuel saved!Ĭlassic Construction Models (CCM) have just released the much anticipated D11 in 1:24 scale to add to their collection of die-cast replicas. Cat claim this new dozer can save an average 54,553litres (12,000 gallons) of fuel per year per machine. Its new load sensing hydraulics, frame, mounting pins and bigger engine oil capacity lowered maintenance cost by 5%, resulting in an improvement to lower overall cost/bank cubic metre of up to 6%. This new ultra-class dozer is simply known as the D11, and has increased productivity, efficiency, and lowered fuel burn by nearly 8%. The mighty D11T was then introduced in early 2008, and after a ten year reign as one of the world’s top mining and bulk earthworks dozers, in November 2018 the best just got better, when Caterpillar introduced the Next-Generation D11. The big Carrydozer models’ weight was just over 108.8 tonnes and by the year 2000, over 3,000 D11s had been produced at their plant in East Peoria. The D11R and D11R Carrydozer were then introduced in Las Vegas, Nevada, at MINExpo International in 1996, with innovations such as fingertip controls and electronic clutch and brakes. Caterpillar have been producing the mighty D11 series of dozers since February 1986, when the 92.7tonne, D11N was introduced with a 34 m3 blade and 770hp engine to replace the D10 as Caterpillar’s top of the range ultra-class dozer.
