I love the sight of shiny new Cat paint.
A komatsu PC800 has more reach than that machine. I'm not to happy with Cat so I'm moving over to Komatsu

I think the European CAT 385's like 385c JR is running are built in Belgium, are these the same that we see over here Doug?

doug,
we run mainly cats, some deere and some volvo. i dont beleive we ahve any jobs right now in pa, ive only been there for about 3 months, so im still trying to lear the ins and outs of the company. so far ive found it to be a very good company to work for. we do a lot of residential developments and some comercial work , we have a decent size job in flordham park right now and a couple in the flanders area . i hope we get some road work or specialized pipe work , but im finding its pretty tough in jersey to get work like that becaue of the union being so strong, i enjoy doing pipe , i ve never really did hevey highway, hopefully someday ill get the chance to , residential developments gets old after a while, very repatious work build your roads and ponds, do your pipe work , build your pads,....... and so on. it would be cool to do some big road jobs and some big size diameter pipe jobs.
I have been doing this for over 30 yrs and have never found Komatsu to be of any value or asset on the job... You have to remember that the PC in Komatsu's prefix stands for PC of **** !
PC of ****?
No value or asset on the job?... what do you mean Doug - more downtime, higher operating cost per hour, reduced productivity?
All Komatsu equipment or just excavators?
i worked for some smaller companies in pa they have recently went out of bussiness but where i learned the most and did the pipe work was for a company in Reading called Schlouch Inc, they do some work in the lehigh valley we had close to 400 people and 15 pipe crews before, i left and went to a smaller oufit, which i wont metioned the name, i hope nobody evers goes to work there, horrible comepany to work for. i know the union has been on some of our jobs trying to get soem of our guys but i beleive our boss isnt pro union, i dont know the circumstances be hind it though.
I have run it 2000h now, and it's running like a dream...
No problems at all...
Well there has been som leaks on it i know...
The 365bl who had som hole in the engine shall we talk about that Frank?
