Okay-now on the other end of the spectrum, borrowed this Cat 300.9D micro to do a little stone wall work-also figured I would get rid of a few stumps-makes a good "hatchet " to chop routes and then the 4790 with the grapple pulls them out like carrots!

yeah long-x gets hit a few times a year and its like a 16'10" bridge with a overhigth detection system with flashing lights, i think there is already plans to replace it as part of the 4 lane expatiation on hwy 85

as far as insurance im sure there insurance is not happy at all with them, i believe there still working on the bridge. I haven't been out that way in a while but last i heard is they had the bridge opened back up 1 lane with flagers and they were still working on it, i know they ripped a cross beam out of the bridge.

Hah! Brings back memories of my youth. we had a T6K Backhoe. The boom and the dipper were like heavy pipe sections. I was never allowed to run the hoe ("cause then kid you'll know what I know") but I was the driver job site to job site.. Always amazed me that big cab with no motor in it! At which series I wonder did the "upper" get its own power?
