You're welcome. Had a talk with the big guy and we have an understanding, nothing to worry about from this side.

Wow, welcome back.

Still rockin' the reef tank?

You mean my 220 gallon anemone farm? Yes, I still have it. ;-)

He is. Talk to him on a regular basis and he's doing great. Sold his old business, made some money, and moved on to the next venture. His boy, my nephew, just turned 6. Fun flies when you're doing time.

Just ran across his business card in my drawer last week. Guess I can toss that out now.

His number is still the same and he's still in the industry.

Jordy, just saw an off-road service truck in the Cat yard at Eloy. Looks like it's built on a D400 frame. They also have a 390 excavator.

They can do a whole bunch with the artics. Lube trucks is just the start. One of the mines in Utah put a flatbed on one to haul parts for one of the big shovels in and out of the pits. The Volvo A40's are like driving a Cadillac. We have a couple working up here and I've got pics of one backing up a 45* hill while loaded to feed a dozer on a pad.

All the new trackhoe numbers are just silly. Had a 374 on a job in Phoenix and it was about half the size of the old 375's. That was obvious when they pulled it onto the job in one piece, versus having another truck following with the stick, bucket and counterweight. The new trackhoes are really nice as well. Have a 336 up here that's fun to jump in and play with from time to time, not as much fun as the D9 though.
