    Love my 333, we were stretched out one week and i had to use it for base in a parking lot. I pushed 30 triple axle loads of 4” down in a day 🤣 climb the pile just like a dozer I was really impressed.

      When your running the Deere do you have the EZ grade enabled ?

    Nice use of the curl to control height. I believe that is the best way.

    This video solidifies the reason Im buying the 2020 325G with the 96" Dozer blade. So much you can finish with this setup. Cant wait to take possession of my High track. Plenty of POWER in that machine to move anything you need. Thank you TOM SHORT at R.D.O. in Gilbert Az. for giving the BEST deal in the country.

    I'll always love John Deere but I have a Kubota 95 right now that is really nice for the price and John Deere was about $12,000 more when I bought mine and I do understand why to a certain extent because I have ran the 333g and the power is unquestionable it is extremely powerful but I'm not crazy about the visibility on it. Having said that , if I had a pile of money I will definitely be getting one of these

    • @Yettiattack
      @Yettiattack Před 2 měsíci

      The 333d is superior in visibility to the 333g but the g has alot more power-with that said we had 2 g series and 2 d series the g would switch back and forth fourth at the dealer with def issues for over a year. One would be fixed the other goes in for service.

    So would you do this or a small track dozer like a D1 or 2? We have a 333g but not sure if i want to be pushing all that on the arms all the time. Did they have a cost yet for this system?

    • @ianprince7118
      @ianprince7118  Před 3 lety +1

      For what we do I'd choose this over a small dozer. Mainly for the versatility. But if your just non stop pushing dirt all day every day I'd go with a D1 or something around that size.

    Wondering on those corner parking stall. The area a GRADER can't reach. Lots of big Blacktop contractors in my area use a box spreader on a 3 point hitch, behind a dedicated made front Loader backhoe. I see so meany black top guys with skis steers now. A small roller and skid steer on trailers. It seems like this would be better than a belly blade Tractor. Just my opinion.

    Ahh man, these vids that show gps equipped equipment where the gps automatics aren't being taken advantage of kill me. topcon gps makes it so easy for even a operator who barely knows gps to be able to bust out flat or sloped pads with out a model. Set up a base and do single point localization then create a flat pad at any elevation you choose from the cab of the machine is so easy. even better if theres a network then you dont even need a base, just run off the internet straight to the machine...
    if you cant tell im a big proponent of gps control on equipment.. makes a good operator great, and a okay operator good. less need for a grade setter to chase the machine all day...gets em out of the way so you can get your work done.
