It was considered cheaper than having everyone stand around and wait for mechanics to get everything running again. I had to wait for 3 days one time for a mechanic to get to my dozer ( I guess I was pretty low on the food chain) . We had been off for about 10 days at christmas, after that I was told leave it running till we tell you other wise! BTW this was newer equipment just a few years ago, and we still do it when necessary. It sure is nice to climb in that cab at 6:00 am and it's toasty warm!
