    My husband and I really enjoy watching your channel together. He loves messing around with "abandoned" vehicles and has drug home quite a few over the 30+ years of our marriage. I say as long as the bills are paid, he can bring home anything he wants. I think it's healthy for him to do it so I am happy with it.

    In case you (ever) get a lighttower (still watching the video, so it's still a surprise for me), it's an absolute must to convert it to LED, that way you have a light tower + generator. Usually those things are made to just run the lights, plus maybe a small 120V machine, but if you convert it to LED, you suddenly have a big power surplus. You know how it goes: whenever you need power, you also need light, and whenever you need light, you often also could use power. It's simply the logical combination.

    T’was bout a week before Christmas,
    When all thru the creek.
    Matt was all happy,
    for most of the week.
    He heard about the Richie auction,
    and shouted ., “Everything’s for sale!!!
    So he pleaded to his wife,
    but it was to no avail.
    On the day of the auction,
    he crept around like a mouse,
    He Tip-toed past his wife
    and then sneaked out of the house.
    The equipment was all lined up,
    with precision and care.
    Diesel Creek got wind of it...,
    and he soon will be there.
    When he arrived at the yard,
    he almost went insane,
    There were so many models
    and he called them by name.
    He got in a backhoe.., a Skid Steer.....,
    ..., and an old rusty deuce,
    He said “ This thing don’t run...,
    and the steering feels loose.
    And what to his wandering eyes should appear,
    but a truck with a big stick ,
    that went a 100 feet in the air.
    The auction came and went,
    it didn't take very long...
    The last words he heard was...
    Going Once, Going Twice.. GONE!!!!
    Be sure to tune in next week,
    to see what Matt bought...
    and if his wife turns on him,
    when she sees the junk he got..
    Have a Merry Excavator and a Happy Skid Steer!

      Are you kidding me ??? I had a little 27 excavator for 10 years of absolutely trouble-free service, then sold it for 1/2 what I paid for it new. What's not to like ?

    Yeah, Matt, I agree about that Pettibone crane. You probably would be sleeping on the couch for a while if that shows up in the driveway.😆

    We put a rock hammer on the back of our backhoe and use it for raising manholes and valve boxes to final grade before the last asphalt layer

    “It would have to be next to free”. Yeah like they pay me to take it away. 🤣 Good luck at the action, “win” something cool.
