    I have been wanting to find an excavator like this for a while now. There are a few projects on our schedule that are going to require an excavator. My boss at my firm put me in charge of finding one. I hope I don’t disappoint him. http://www.prattcoexcavating.com/

    Can you picture yourself using something like this on a daily basis? I think it would be fun to operate an excavator. I actually need to get one of these to help get the land prepared to start building on. I am hoping we can get it all leveled and ready by mid-march. http://www.brancatella.com.au/excavators.php
