240D Timberjack Cable Skidder!! First Day on The New Cut What Could Go Wrong!! Detroit 453 5 Speed 

It's Amazing to see that old Beast run, and still Pull like a New one 👍👍👍

My Dad always said about these Detroits “If it ain’t hell, it ain’t happy! Just put it to the floor and let ‘er rip!”

Firewood must bring big money up there, because that's a long skid through a old cutoff just for firewood.

Old girl needs some love for sure

Those tires are fine. Put chains on em an keep skiddin logs..!

Sweet machine! I'm always on the lookout for an older skidder like this myself. I run a Cat 977H crawler loader with a winch for logging (hence my user name) and it does awesome for shorter turns but for longer turns like what you're doing it would kill the undercarriage in no time! Thanks for the great video! Subscribed!

Damn this looks like it would be fun to operate.

Should be called just driving old skidder in the woods, nothing else matters

Only a Detroit works that well ! Just wear earplugs, and keep oil in it and it will keep doing it's job a long time!

Are you cutting off your own woodlot or do you pay stumpage to a private land owner? Bought my first skidder recently for my own woodlot. Thanks

Hollie shit that thing revs

No money in firewood,running on 4 bald tires! He’s doing it for the love of logging obviously.

Great machine! I have a 230 super E. 3 speed automatic with 4 cylinder Detroit. 1980. What year is yours? I’m in Ontario. Where are you ?

I guess if it had Decent Tires on it, it wouldn't RUN 🫣🤣😂
