Built on Caterpillar's D6 platform, the XL configuration typically refers to a wider track gauge and longer undercarriage arrangement for improved stability and flotation in soft or uneven ground conditions. The machine is commonly equipped with a six-way blade, hydrostatic or powershift drivetrain depending on configuration, and a diesel engine sized for medium-duty earthmoving work. The D6R XL is used for dozing, ripping, backfilling, and finish grading, with service access and operator controls designed for productivity and maintenance efficiency. ## Photos ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043759215&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=qilrEAMABm%2b5dcgUDpcOEvNJh3AiKpxO) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 2](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758791&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7VpMEkA5XxcsaZ5uDZyqpfH) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 3](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758795&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7W2%2fSjGL2gvqm8V4R4AVflh) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 4](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758799&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7VIzmGmM98GBUshfMXf6396) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 5](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758811&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7WU50N%2b37xJFi0kUc5ODGBm) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 6](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758820&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7WO9juxwtpamqOMDx59XB2n) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 7](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758830&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7WyGAwxCfNPmgdISJMS2R9G) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 8](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043758834&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=%2fqp0EYyTi7WYbCNnknfR%2fduz9KHjnpMo) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 9](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043759206&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=qilrEAMABm9PJMqRV4klQrRV9M5csY1u) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 10](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043759209&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=qilrEAMABm8763qB%2fUEBaY6vPioJ92Zw) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 11](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043759212&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=qilrEAMABm%2fNg2cYg4Um%2fVVMG3JYIyz5) ![1997 Caterpillar D6R XL photo 12](https://media.sandhills.com/img.axd?id=11043759216&wid=0&rwl=False&p=&ext=&w=600&h=400&t=&lp=&c=True&wt=False&sz=Max&rt=0&checksum=qilrEAMABm9Fju5LcLzdy0tLcCrqTCg6)
