wow, 55.00 per hour for a dozer operator, best I ever got was 16.00 and I am as good as they come, 30 years worth, dad taught me, he ran them with armour in korea, nothing but slits to look out of. I was getting $100.00 for my D6D, seemed a bargain to me, most would cry, beat you up on price, so I sold it and decided the hell with the dirt business, been no money in Omaha for 10 years, they seem to want to see who has the best bankruptcy lawyer. The banks and everyone keep refinancing these same idiots and the prices never go up, one company 27 million chapter seven and people still think they are best dirt movers around
