    Our 'new' EX 1800

    Weve had this big dog digging for about 2 weeks now. I just now got around to getting some pics of it working. John is 3 passing the Payhaulers with the small 12.5 yard bucket. The 5110 is loading the 605 Komatsus with 4 passes from the 14 yard bucket. A bigger bucket is on its way for the 1800.

    988H Sunday afternoon drive.

    I shot this 988 just north of Riggins, ID on Highway 95 last Sunday. I was trying to get a few more shots, but my batteries died on me. Must be cheaper than a lowboy!
