A D5 Cat is a 70 yr old design and isn’t particularly impressive. The ‘D’ designation has no dash either.

wait, wait, wait, wait.... our CINC would have been driving those 70yr old Cats.... as a Baron-aged tyke under Dad Fred’s tutelage 60yrs ago.

Multiple meanings.... drive D5 old-school worldview to snowball deep state down the hill, into the Abyss.

The D5 Cat dozer model was revived in the mid 60s. The original D5 was introduced in 1939 and only made for one year.

Yes. Caterpillar does not use dashes in their dozer model numbers. Never has.
