    I have to admit I'm confused how none of Andrew's dogs ever seem to get injured. I've had a lot of dogs in my lifetime and even the smartest didn't seem to have anywhere near the situational awareness Levi had and Cody has. Add to that that despite their situational awareness they remain bold and fearless enough to constantly be in and all around the thick of whatever Andrew is doing and it both fascinates and terrifies me. I hope Cody never gets hurt. He certainly seems to know exactly when to get the hell out if the way. But man is that dog always right on top of everything that's going on.

      He is definitely aware and prepared to jet if something moves the wrong way, i even yelled for him to move when that big ass rock moved a little. He flinched when it moved then just stayed when it stopped, he will be fine though

      I think it's because they're exposed to it right from the start.
      I apparently have a smart breed of dog (german shepherd). I can guarantee she'd be run over immediately. She's just not that smart haha. She'll get confused when I'm walking her and cut me off and trip me 3 or 4 times.

      editing out your helpers names and rarely ever giving them credit is pretty scumbag IMO I like his videos and have been watching a lot longer then most when his container castle was just getting started and it only gets worse like he doesn;t want to aknowledge anyone anymore for some reason. I wonder why he does this. Look at his last video of that guy that helped him a lot and only at the very end he mentions his first name briefly and only once and saus his channel but says no more and lists no link. So he purposely does that for some reason??? Very entertaining overall but he also rides a bit on others efforts and does not not or rarely gives them any credit

He has his own channel and he states in his video that he contacted Andrew and asked if he could drive 5 hours to meet and help Andrew. Not the other way around.

I've never driven one but I think I would love to do that one day for a full day for fun. The thing is, when Andrews done and you see it again in a few weeks, it always looks like that was the way it always looked naturally. That is going to look so clean and neat and make for a nice driveway and parking area. We should gofundme for him to start a huge building to keep all his big rigs in there!

    I operated a 1989 or 1990 Cat 966E for 2 years 10 hrs a day, for an excavation/construction company digging basements, hauling off/in with a 1988 Pete rock dump. They used the rock dump as it was lower to load with the 966. Most of the soils around were mainly sandy/gravely with clays down 10 15 feet, some caliche. It beat me up! I cannot begin to imagine digging in schist and shale! Great Vid!

    Andrew, I'm surprised you're not stock piling this broken shale. This makes the best road base available. The sharp edges lock into each other.

    These track loaders are awesome, this one and your smaller one ( the green one who I think is a Cat or I may be mistaken ) are over achievers that's for sure,
    Just imagine a track loader as big as your new 988 wheel loader, this thing would be unstoppable !!! Keep up your great work and your "do it" attitude !!!

    That new CAT is a beast!
    Game changer!
    Two days on excavator, one day on track loader = 2 hours of big Cat!!

    That 977 has way more nuts than the 988, unbelievable. Each shine in their own areas.
