Default csmi articulated dump truck?

Does any one have any info on this model? It states its modeled after a cat but i can't find the maker of the model or find it anywhere else. I tried to figure out how to post a link but i failed, sorry. The model is red on their website and is labeled as an articulated dump truck 6x4. Any info or leads is greatly appreciated

At under 1250 us dollars I would say thats going to be tuff. And you could always add hydros if you choose. looks like a nice unit when all painted up.

My Vario B50 has hauled over 50cy (literally) with virtually zero problems. It cost more than the CTI listed above, but it's also alot bigger too & full hydraulic.

I messaged kevin at CSMI and he said that was an old that is no longer being sold. They are working on a new volvo A40 kit that looks nice, but is more expensive. I purchased an excavator a couple weeks ago so my funds are a little tight right now. Are the izzy dozers still around?

There was only a production run of 10 or so Izzy dozers & they were slow to move that many in about 6 months... little chance of another run anytime soon. Watch the BST on the forum, two have resold in the last couple yrs.

Do you have one? Have you seen one in person?
