This Caterpillar D5 Bulldozer is a used bulldozer — sometimes called a dozer or crawler dozer — built for earthmoving, grading, and land-clearing work across construction, mining, forestry, and infrastructure projects. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of heavy construction and mining equipment, with a long-standing reputation for producing durable, high-performing machines that serve contractors and operators in demanding conditions worldwide. This example was manufactured in 2022 and is currently located in Alabama, USA, offered at $302,500.
The machine is configured as a Low Ground Pressure (LGP) unit fitted with a Variable Power Angle Tilt (VPAT) blade, giving it the ability to work effectively on soft or sensitive ground while offering versatile blade positioning for a wide range of grading and pushing tasks. The LGP undercarriage is equipped with 33-inch extra-service, heavy-duty extended-life (HDXL) tracks, providing broad ground contact, improved flotation, and enhanced durability in abrasive underfoot conditions. The undercarriage assembly itself is also specified as LGP HDXL, underscoring the machine's suitability for soft-terrain applications.
Blade and machine control is handled through an ARO joystick arrangement with grade control integration, reflecting a modern, operator-focused control layout. The Dozer CTL configuration pairs ARO and grade functionality with the LGP VPAT setup, and a dedicated ripper control package is included, indicating that a ripper attachment is part of the working specification. The overall configuration is listed as 17B VPAT HRC, and the machine carries a bulldozer package specific to the LGP VPAT arrangement alongside a standard duty package.
The cab is fitted with a premium floor and is prepared for cold-weather operation through the inclusion of a 110V cold-weather package, making this machine suitable for use in lower-temperature environments. Auxiliary lighting is fitted, extending the machine's operational capability in low-light conditions, and a rear-view camera is included to support operator awareness on site. Connectivity is provided via Caterpillar's Product Link telematics system, with both PLE643 and PLE743 radio modules listed, enabling remote fleet monitoring and asset management. The high-speed oil change system streamlines routine maintenance, and the fan is configured to the standard specification.
A notable feature of this listing is the remaining factory warranty coverage: powertrain, hydraulics, and technology components are covered until 2 February 2027 or 5,000 hours, whichever comes first, providing the next owner with meaningful protection on key machine systems. The equipment certification code is listed as NCR. At 2022 manufacture, this is a relatively recent machine offering a well-specified LGP dozer package with modern controls, telematics, and transferable warranty coverage.
