Going to guess with:
 
1. A rock dump truck
2. A train engine
3. Your H2.

Close!


A CAT D5K dozer!


I wish I could run that winch though!


It would be perfect on Roy's H1 now that he has an 18gpm hydraulic pump on board! Ya gotta do something with all that flow!!!

With a winch weight of 1345 lbs you would need a serious set of springs I figured ( or none at all if is on a dozer). I would think a winch on a dozer is more for pulling out trucks or other equipment that are stuck as opposed to pulling itself out. Then I saw this:

Now I get it.  Pulls trees up a hill like twigs.
