Whats the story with the 1 Cat excavator in that sea of white Bobcat paint?

[YellowDogSVC]

You are spoiled ROTTEN Mr Sops! :) That's the setup I wanted for hauling. What kind of weight can you get on the rollback?

On the hooklift, can you put your s330 in it?

Yes the hooklift i can fit my s330 in. The bed is rated to hold 14,000 lbs but when i put my cat on there which weighs i belive 12,700 you can def feel the weight

I know what the story behind the "not for hire" decal, but man, that is still something that would bug me if I were a weekend warrior looking for an excavation/landscape company to do some work for me.

[Danny Boy]

I agree, that will cost you come business I'm sure

Yeah it annoys me to ron but that's what i had to put on there after they towed my dam truck on me.

[mrsops]

Its been on there for 5 years now.. What can i do most people know what it means by now anyway

With tow trucks you have to be licensed tow operator you can't own a tow truck without that not for hire. It used to be that way here I might be still is.

In one area you have to apply to operate a tow business it limits the competition.

Anyhow what Mr Sops is doing is the easiest way of moving mini equipment around. Rolloff trucks are handy because you can load up the machine go deliver it to the job then go get material.

Your right about every you just said gravel rat..

With the rolloff i have even put a few yards of dirt or gravel and drove the machine in there little tight but it works.

Even though you like that white and orange, I gotta give you credit for keeping your stuff clean. How many hours on the 305 now? She still looks new!

I keep it out of the weather so it does stay nice. Its still pretty new i think its only 15 months old i have about 400 hours on it..

That white and orange holds up better then any skid steer out there :weightlifter:

Looking good sops, white and blue trucks definitely stand out. I recently just looked at a 97 international 4700 hook, (already painted white and blue) but passed it up because of the 25500 gvw. Looking for 33000 gvw. Did you ever get the combo bucket??? It's not on the rack. Talk about buckets, holy crap. How's business on Staten Island?

[Dirtman2007]

Thats a nice setup you have there! Can I borrow some of that nice clean equipment... I've got some mud piles that need to be moved next week haha!

[Junior M]

Sure, no trailer, but now you need 2 drivers!

would you have been able to put the t190 on the trailer and pull it behind your roll back? or put the mini ex on the trailer and pull it behind the switch n go truck? or would you be over capacity at that point, legally speaking?

I never tried doing that with the rollback. The switch and go truck we did try it once. What i did was i had my t190 in the container part and was pulling my s205 on one of my smaller trailers it pulled fine but it was more of a hastle trying to find a spot to unload everything. I dont know after we got these trucks none of us want to take trailers :laugh:

[ProTouch Groundscapes]

i see, you need enough space to unhook the trailer and have the machine off the trailer to drop the container.

lookin good as always mrsops!!

Business has been steady in Suffolk (little slow in Sept), more hardscape projects than plantings though. No 6 figure projects this yr either. Can't wait for the snow too! Just signed another lg storage facility in King Park. Make sure you wash all the trucks Monday morning after all this rain LOL.

Very nice- is the International CDL or non-CDL, and what is the bed length?

Must be the DOT is a little soft downstate. An unsecured boom up here will cost $500 or do.

[bobcatuser]

mrsops, how many moves are you averaging per week with that tilt deck?
Around here the towing company's are averaging $100 per hour doing machine moves with a heavy spec single axle. I would trade my 5500 in for a tilt deck, if I could find a driver that can multitask...:hammerhead:
