It's going very well!! I haven't felt better in a long time, and it's only been a week!!
LOL.... No wussing out here, Brad!! I was sore for a couple days, but I'm all good now. I was working out pretty hard back a few months, so the soreness was over pretty quick. Highly recommend the program!!

One Deere piece. A 490E.
The majority of our equipment is, unfortunately, Dresser.
4 Dresser machines. 2 530 loaders (3 yard loaders) a TD25G (73,000 lb dozer. Approx D8 equivalent) and a TD7H (D3 or D4 equivalent)
CAT is my preferred brand. Deere is a close second. If we're talking excavators then Hitachi and Deere are tied since they're the same. Maybe Hitachi would be a hair above Deere for the better fuel economy.
Nick: That is absolutely hillarious. That guy has WAY too much free time on his hands though.

Only one CAT piece. A 236B skid. She's a beautiful machine though. Full cab, heat/AC, hydraulic quick tach, ride control, etc. and just a bit over 400 hours.
One Deere piece. A 490E.
The majority of our equipment is, unfortunately, Dresser.
4 Dresser machines. 2 530 loaders (3 yard loaders) a TD25G (73,000 lb dozer. Approx D8 equivalent) and a TD7H (D3 or D4 equivalent)

As far as excavators I like komat'su 350 or 400.There quick,smooth and good on fuel.Just not as tough as cat or Johndeer.

On the '06, that is very close to what I want as my next truck. F350, check. 4x4, check. Low miles, check. But I want a King Ranch, if I can find one...
On another note, I just caught up on the last several pages... Good stuff.

Biggest machines we need are in the 70,000-80,000lb range.
We're working on trying to save up for a D6 in the future. It'll be like $125,000 for an 04 or 05 with 3,000 hours on it. We want one with a 6 way blade since it is easier to achieve a final grade with a 6 way than with a semi-U.
We're trying to get a job hauling material from the dredging of a town reservoir. If all goes as planned it could be a 1,000,000$ job.
I've got dad convinced that if we get it we will need to lease a new D6LGP since the material will be wet and sloppy.
Here's the kitty.
