That's awesome Chris thanks for reaching out❤ I really enjoyed hanging out at the back of crowd when the trainer was going over the machine teaching our techs about it. I learned some great parts stuff. The cab really impressed me. The drink holder/storage area is HUGE! In my "about" tab there's an email if you want to BS at all.
This machine is an absolute beast! Love the step up ladder for servicing. Nice that the hood is raised by itself. Maybe hydraulically or electrically? Awesome that the bed will tilt over separate from the cab. What would you haul that would need the bed to be heated? Great video! Loving this channel! This is right up my alley! Thanks Jeremy.
Thanks, hood- electric motor powering a hydraulic pump. The heated bed is more for operating in the cold Wisconsin winter. You don't want stuff frozen in the bed. Regular dump trucks around here have exhaust gases running back to the tailgate to keep them from freezing closed.
Unofficial occupation "tinkerer" Thanks for the awesome comment! Official occupation "parts consultant" for a heavy equipment dealer. Cranes, telehanders, road building equipment (13 years & going). For 13 years before that I was parts manager at a local Saturn automotive "retailer".

It shouldn't surprise you but I was first into air cooled VWs. On my list is to digitize a video taken right before I sold a 73 camper bus. Another one is to digitize a video of my long gone64 Cadillac Fleetwood (my favorite vintage car I've owned but not my favorite to work on)
Great Video Jeremy! I am the Product Manager for the TA230. Hope you guys are enjoying it!

Congratulations I'm watching from Zambia 🇿🇲 so only the exhaust will damage if tipped over

You're extremely knowledgeable ! 👍

p.s. I've been looking at 1/50 scale cranes for my layout...but they appear to be quite expensive.
