What needs to be done? A dozer operator won't know a backhoe or excavator. and neither would know a grader. I can run all of them effectively as a lot of guy's probably can but efficiently is a whole other story

I often run a very nice Volvo wheel loader at work and am very good at it. 15 years will do that. But, pretty sure they don't have anything like that there. I have zero track experience.

geez KASEY I figured you would have at least masked off the tires before you spraypainted the wheels! J/K. Looks like a beast and a half.

I'm sure there's a for real operating engineer that rides 3 wheelers. I wouldn't want to play around on someone else's expensive equipment with a chance of tearing it up.

Honestly, this is why I didn't come back. It wasn't the owners fault, they had torrential rain the days prior to 08TF.

I can run a backhoe or dozer, excavator if quickly educated. Basically, I LOVE heavy equipment and I don't want 2' deep ruts on the tracks.......

I hadn't piped up because I figured for sure there would be a lot more replies to this with truly experienced operators. I'm surprised more guys haven't chimed in.

I was licensed in Massachusetts on heavy equipment (Yes, you do need a license to run equipment in Mass) but I let my license lapse. I do have quite a bit of time in both a loader and an excavator. Loaders are simple. If you guys need someone in a loader I can do that no problem. The excavator I was really good with some time ago, but I'd need a little time to warm up I'm sure. It's been a while. I did run a dozer at one point, but I wouldn't consider myself an expert in the dozer by any means.

DC and I should be pulling in late Sunday or at some point on Monday depending on how the trip goes.

I'm good at running most equipment , but seriously doubt I'll make it. I run all types of heavy equipment for a living.
