If I were to guess your location I would say those photos were taken near Ventura Avenue. Am I close?

I don't need specifics. I just thought I recognized the terrain. I was only off by about thirty miles. Not so bad for an unlabled photo. BTW with todays technology you may want to think twice about posting photos like that if you have the type of concerns mentioned in your last post. You may want to have the moderator remove the questionable pics.

Here are my machines, my favorite is my 99 580SL 4x4 Extendahoe. She has just under 6000 hrs. Then there is my 03 Bobcat 753G, my 01 Bobcat 463F, my 89 F-700 Dump, my 86 Corn-binder Dump, and my 99 F-550 4x4 7.3. I also have a New Holland L445, a 72 580B, and a Scat Trak 1500D but no pic's yet. :D

What happen that you had to get rid of the 310 for an old 580E?

Thanks diggerdave n others for that contribution. Unfortunately there are no John Deeres n have only seen 2 Case backhoes in my country(Kenya). The available models are mainly Cat, JCB(have even seen some smoky unit made in India), Komatsu, and volvo. But very good point on no monthly payments especially in these tough economic times and not very pleasant bank managers when the going gets tough.
