    I think you should market the narrow bucket as a "Pipe bucket" a DP specialty bucket ! I definitely agree with your statement at the end, it was a team effort and a job well done !!

      Yep. Operating equipment is like brain surgery and rocket science all rolled into one. You can either do it your first try or not.
      I tried it and I kept getting the medulla oblongata in at the wrong slope. They said the good ones make it look easy and that maybe I ought to give up operating on brains and try operating equipment.

    Hey, I find it perplexing how you complain on every video about power of your Volvo, then I watch Letsdig18 ripping through giant boulders weighing 15-20 thousand pounds. Seems like you either purchased the wrong machine or your dealers support staff that say there is nothing wrong with your machine are incompetent. Maybe you need to escalate your concerns higher up at Volvo and have them specify the weight your machine is capable of. Or your just bought the wrong machine, and you need too just move on and get it fixed or trade for what will work for your needs.

Pretty amazing how good a man can get at operator a machine . I'm not an operator so maybe thats not such a big deal but, running a dozer just a bit here and there like I have it sounds amazing.
