Haha, buying that machine is the best money I have ever spent on a toy. It has saved us way more than what it cost just in excavating fees. Let alone it is sitting here ready to go when you have a job to do. It's a goofy looking machine because it's from Japan(grey market) but I am continually amazed by what it will do for it's size. You should want one too Mike!

Love those scale bridges of yours too, should have had you stuff one of those in the box with the dump trailer on its way down!

Yes this trucks size can be a pain but when you see it loaded in person cruising around it is fairly impressive. It showed no signs of slowing down on the uphill grades but I am a bit worried about the gears in the diffs under that load as well as the drive shafts. So far so good and I do have spares. I just don't want to break my pride and joy!lol The bridges turned out not bad considering I just threw them together. It would have been nice to cut scale sized decking for them but I didn't want to devote that much time. I think the 1"x8" planks kinda look like concrete slabs so it's good enough. They are wide enough to pass two trucks in 1/14 and barely wide enough for the KW850.
