Exactly. I believe they are designed from a type of tank but I cant remember what one..

Front drive, droop track not very many tanks designed like that. I think it's the M113 light armored vehicle platform.

I thought it'd be fun to see what logging equipment you all use. So ill start. Below is our newest addition, a 2015 KMC 2500 track skidder. Next is my first machine, a 1985 Treefarmer C5D cable machine with a screamin' 3-53 and lastly our 2005 Peterbilt 379 with a 600 Horse Cat, 18spd and Prentice 124 built by Hubler Bros. in PA.

Now lets see what y'all have.
