This Caterpillar 140M3 is a used motor grader — sometimes referred to as a road grader or grading machine — a heavy construction machine purpose-built for fine grading, levelling, and maintaining road surfaces, earthworks, and large flat areas. Caterpillar is one of the world's most widely recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-standing reputation for building durable, high-performance machines used across road construction, mining, agriculture, and infrastructure development.
This 2018 example is located in Wyoming, USA, and is offered for sale at $199,500. It has been configured with a notably comprehensive specification package, making it well suited to demanding cold-climate and high-productivity work environments.
The machine carries a Base + 5 option package encompassing wheel motors, wheel trim, a first drawbar arrangement, floor covering, and a ripper — confirming the inclusion of ripper and scarifier equipment as standard on this unit. A Grade Control X Slope system is fitted, providing automated blade slope management to assist with accurate and consistent grading passes. Auto Articulation control is also included in a demonstration configuration, aiding manoeuvrability and reducing operator fatigue during extended work cycles.
Cold-weather capability is a strong feature of this grader. The Cold Weather Plus Package is specified, accompanied by a 120-volt engine coolant heater, antifreeze windshield washer fluid, and coolant rated to –51°C (–60°F) in a 60/40 mix — equipment that collectively points to preparation for severe winter operating conditions. This aligns with the Snow arrangement designation noted in the configuration data, and the machine is fitted with outside heated mirrors running on 24 volts, further supporting all-season usability. A Low Ambient global arrangement is also noted, consistent with operation in cold or high-altitude environments.
Additional practical equipment includes an extreme-duty electric starter, a SY-KLONE precleaner for enhanced engine air filtration, an articulation guard, an axle hose guard, and a gravity engine oil drain for simplified servicing in the field. A front lift mounting group with manual front lift is fitted, and a Roll On-Roll Off arrangement is specified to facilitate transport logistics. A standard fuel tank is installed. A rear-view camera is included, and a seat belt is fitted as standard. The operator's station is fully English-language configured, with US-specification decals and access to an online owner's manual.
