Party Pooper Clint From  

And I thought we were friends 😢 Lol hang on I might have something for you today 😁

Wow lots of goods to be seen and had hope you find what you are after great watch thanks for sharing 👍👋🇨🇦

Komatsu parts are expensive, but you don't buy many because they are an awesome machine, ran a 355 dozer for about 15 years and was impressed, ran 450 diggers and was also blown away by the fact that they are so under rated from the factory!

I think Mike should buy a huge long reach excavator so he can stack the next brush fire even higher. 👌

My local county road department used to have a pair of those they used when pulling ditches on dirt roads. They'd follow the graders and pick up all the trash and stuff that the graders pulled out of the ditches, then dump it somewhere off the road.

It’s good to have friends like party pooper Clint. Pointed out some things on the dump truck at Yoder & Fry and saved you some heartache and money. Keep looking, you will find one.

Well at least you had some nice weather

What you do is you buy really really good driver seat and just move the old driver's seat over to the passionate side and that way you'll have a nice air ride comfortable seat

Hang in there, you will find that MACK triaxle, it will come out of no where. Thanks for the update sir.

Fun times. Lots of potential projects that would probably take a couple years to start getting a return on ... lol.

Really like these auction videos bro there is sure plenty to view and ya run into great company. Safe travels

Whatever Clint has in mind for you would be great he's a great friend to you and wouldn't let you down you should go with it, Mike

I think a milk crate would work as a passenger seat for Aaron. As a bonus, his feet would touch the floor...

I used to run a 627B cat Scraper for years great machine to operate twin engines lots of power. However you are correct they have their place

THOSE long sticks are like running and excavator with a tea spoon on it.

I think Wade needs that Taylor forklift for the mill. He might take the whole place down with it though 😂 you usually see them at rail yards moving containers around.

Another great video thank you keep them coming please

That was a CAT 315 Next Generation next to the brand new Hyundai you were just looking at.

To bad about the Mack dump truck. It looked like a beaut. I like the auction videos and seeing the other youtubers there with you. Great video. Thank you DP.

Thank you so much for cleaning up your intro. Perfect intro for Dirt Perfect.

Great video Mr Dirt Perfect

Mike you for sure don't need a push type scraper pan. If you even wanted one you'd definitely want one that has the paddles. I call them all pans and paddle pan for the ones with paddles. Mike I don't need to explain to you why you would need one with paddles but I'll explain for anyone else that doesn't know. With a pan that doesn't have the paddles, 90% of the time you have to push it with a dozer to get it loaded. Paddle pans have paddles mounted to two chains that spin and grab the dirt and pull it into the pan as you cut it so its self loading, so 90% of the time it doesn't need to be pushed by a dozer. The company I worked for had a early to mid 1990s Cat 613 paddle pan. Only thing I didn't like about it was if you got the pan unlevel while cutting and running the paddles, the chains and paddles would jump off the idle pulleys at the top where they turned to come back around. If you caught it fast enough you could reverse them and get them back on easily. If you didn't catch it in time and that didn't work you'd spend a good while trying to pry and push them back on. Learned real quick not to run them off all the way. Mike doesn't make deep enough cuts and at the same time have a long way to transport the dirt cut out. That's what pans are for. Making deep long cuts that then requires the dirt to be moved a long distance. They will work good for large deep ponds that have really long dams yes but Mike or Chris either one don't do enough ponds like that to justify having a pan for the occasional one that may come along. Even with large deep cuts, track hoes and offroad dump trucks are just as fast as pans if not faster now. All depends on the job at hand. 👍

At least you had a good time and your "friends " certainly helped

Interesting to see the verity of equipment.

Bought a nice Lincoln welder from a Ritchie Bro's a few years ago

It was an impressive episode DP

That pan was probably used to haul sand around the Sandbox

😎👍 Big thumbs up...

DP could you see Chris in a subdivision. With the Case Minotaur with steel tracks in a subdivision. LoL God bless

Well Mike I have enjoyed the video of all of the equipment and that is what I enjoy most about you you go through the steps talk about each and every one of the tractors or excavator dump truck even the pan scraper that was pretty cool I enjoyed your channel and I also enjoy Chris letsdig18 I watch both of y'all do y'all's thing on the jobs whether it's doing a driveway or a foundation for a house or building a pond I enjoyed both you and Chris weather whatever you're doing whatever your building thank you for sharing the videos

@5:42 Are you showing us the view MBTS would have if he was driving. Looking forward between the steering wheel and the dash. 😂🤣😂🤣 Sorry Aaron.

That Oshkosh would make a great truck!

You don't need a seat for Aaron, he could just stand up!!! lol.

Not just for ponds but if you could put your tile plow on that d8 I would guess your footage per day would increase but im sure it has a very nice price tag

That cat scrapper is a 621B

Thanks for the enlightenment!

DP all these excavators at auction does it represent new machinery sales are of the dial or is this companies downsizing ,sitting back here in Australia the size of these auctions is mind blowing ,really enjoyed the walk around Cheers Kym Adelaide

Get that dam d8 that's a nice dozer and that Oshkosh dump

👍 Personally like the old intro better. That Cleveland was so cool man!

Get the Oshkosh🤘🏼🇺🇸

Get a soap box for him to sit on. Lol

Scrapers are best left to California dirt, its nice dry and hard,scrapers best friend, but mud and clay nope keep that stuff

Did so many "she's going to auction" paint jobs when I was a painter and sandblaster.

Keep looking for that good truck

I predict you’ll find one closer to home. Just gotta get the word out.

They say you need a stuck scraper in the bottom of of your next pond

hello from the Netherlands . thanks for the video DP . Sincerely Hollandduck

Love it great video mike

Too bad so sad you didn't get what you wanted, but that's OK there's always another day! Good that you got to see Clinton there and too bad Aaron wasn't there with you that would have been a real treat!

Why get a seat for Aaron? He should be able to stand there and not hit his head! lol...

Great video👍🏻😁😁

Don’t worry about those Flordia trucks they will all go Miami and head south from there

25 years messing around (employed) at a sawmill. If you want to get it done in mud snow and dust , (log truck) it's hard to beat a MACK. You should not be looking at dozers without jerry,, hehe,, in I love these auction videos, all those machines. Have some tales to tell. ,, if they could just talk.

This is a long-shot, but maybe hamiltonville farms might be able to find you the truck you want.

Cool video!

Paint it the same color as the 850j

If I just needed one fronds I'd find a WABCO 252, a new Cat can't come close, advantage F & R engines, transmissions, Planetaries are the same, hydraulics are run from rear, center mount operators seat (see both corner bits easily) easier ride not a kidney buster. Load faster, can put teeth on cutting edge

Mike thanks for the video. Is not Lieutenant Dan a tri-axle? I hate to tell this what you are looking for a 20-plus year old truck and you're looking to be specific I want you're looking for. You already know this but you're looking for a needle in a haystack 20 plus year old truck I'm not saying to dream The Impossible Dream I hope you find what you're looking for. It is a credit to Mac to find as many trucks as you are finding. I would love to see Jerry operating that cat d8t. He would either love it or hate it. When you brought the 850 BLT out of retirement it was great to see Jerry with a sparkle in his eye and a spring in his step not to mention to let you know that he brought extra clothes and when you were going to do those ashes how we switch dozers on you that 850b I believe it made Jerry feel 15 to 20 years younger LOL

JD push button shift,,, hmmm DeSoto had the same thing and failed in the 50's and 60's , no thanks, Parts are either not available or over priced, we wait a year for some parts for tigs in the yard

as a driver looking on this US trucks they looks like they are from the stone age

Why don't you like the Mack transmissions. Those last forever. We never had any problems with the 5 we had.

My boss has a quad aluminum bed 01 looking to sale

Poor Lt Dan is being miss treated lol

What about lt Dan?

😡😡😡 S T O P L O O K I N G 😡 FINISH SERGEANT DAN 👍👍👍

Hey man I'm in French Lick, IN. Don't know if you've heard of Hughes Paving Co., Inc.? Ive got a few Tri axles for sale if your interested?

With all the energy that you're putting into finding a truck . Lt. Dan could have been up and running hahaha .

I like the new beginning. Putting family first is a must for anyone. I know it is especially hard for self-employed guys. Ya gotta make hay when the sun is shining. You will never regret going to that ball game, baton recital or PTA meeting with your wife.

Y`all are an entertaining crew with this episode. Buying from auctions and most personal sales - you can bet its very worn out or an expensive repair soon.

Clinton did you a favor on the Mack you were looking at, good friends are hard to find. Keep looking Mike you'll find your dream truck. Keep up the good work Mike!

There’s an auction coming up around here soon. Road trip! 😁

You could just strap a kids car seat in there for MBTS😂😂, miss seeing Aaron in these vids. Cheers !

Nice new intro Mike! As always, a BIG thank you for bringing us along on your journey. Disappointing but Clinton probably saved you a from a ton of trouble!!!!

Patience comes a long way. As long as the C8500 still runs you have time to search for the right truck.

Nice to see Clint and Mrs C in your video Mr Dirt Perfect

I do hope someone or you finds the truck your after for you ! It’s definitely good to have a very good idea what your looking for and it will come along soon I’m sure !

My cents, scrapers are best for road building if using one. But if the company has multiple machines, then road building & mass material moving. Or used in place of a dump truck.

I you could take a picture of that pattern were what giraffe has beyond certain s**** and all that then you can take it out to CNC and have them to print you off a little one that you can put on your window so you don't know what was going on

I want to buy a car driven by a female boss Do you deliver to Korea? ha ha ha

Sounds like Dp owes a check and a big bag of jerky to Clint. What color is Kevin painting it ? 😆

Howdy Mr. Dirt, Lots of fun watching the gang get into all sorts of trouble!! Hope you get what you want! Take Care, Jim

That old truck sure would look good sitting outside the Derby mart

Hey Mike, Speaking of building ponds with scrappers. Last fall north of you in Jennings Co, in the country a couple of miles south of Scipio they built a pond in a flat field using two pull scrappers with International 4 wheel drive tractors. It was no quick job though.

Hit and miss at the auctions…all part of the game. Thanks for sharing DP!

Seems like that party pooper might have saved you from a poop party 😉

My son and I are looking for a Chevy one ton dump truck and the prices they're asking for those wrecks are absolutely ridiculous.

DP, love the scrapper, but I wasn't thinking that BIG just a tow behind would maybe better suited for you. That one is already green lol.

THEY USE THAT TO UNLOADED LOGGING TRUCK AT THE WOODS MILL SUCH AS GERIOGA PACIFIC, INTERNATIONAL PAPER

DP another amazing 5 🌟 video I believe you'll find something soon and it will make a fabulous video as well as always God bless yah from Gaffney South Carolina viewer.

You really should consider a tracked dump truck, considering all the mud pits you keep getting yourself into.

😛😛❤❤👍👍👍👍👍

so glad you changed your intro and put family first.

I’ll tell you who needs that long reach- Scott at Southern Homestead Transformation!

If C&C don't like it, just walk away.

Sure Aaron can get in? He might be way too short lol

sure said a mouthfull when you talked about cost and difticulty of moving equipment from job to job!!

I noticed you didn’t check out the motor graders, I myself spend about 80percent of my time at work in one, I like Cat when it comes to a blade though, I love going to the equipment auctions.

Didn't Clint mention that he wanted a Taylor fork lift? That big daddy one would be right up his alley. How many excavators do you think they had down there on site? Joe

When you are looking at those really big dozers, my thoughts are... What could Gerry do with THAT?! He piles brush with a 850 as high as you do with the 210 excavator... That's what I want to see.. Gerry on a really big boy. (maybe when Clint has one on hand, loan it to you once for a good test run with Gerry giving it a workout.. )

Better off finishing Lt Dan
