Cool, what are they planning for next year? How did you ever get that contract, if you dont mind me asking? Is it one of those, you have to know someone, or..?

Im just trying to grasp how that whole finding the right jobs works when you run equipment like that.

Thats one reason i got into a backhoe, alot less fuel consumption.

Looking back I mighta been better off getting a mini excavator, but I can always sell, my hoe has just about paid itself off allready!
