[@huronhockey8]

Glad to see your doing great brotha.

[@truesouthlandscaping7657]

Nice! That's a nice machine! Stepping up the game!

[@budmiller3477]

owner of a pro lawn care service here: had the same issues a few years ago Xmart and scag dealers blew me off because I had a old truck & trailer. the plan was to buy two commercial 5' riders with cash then I was going to go to get the trailer and trade the old. they wouldn't give me the time of day and the same for other dealers wouldn't call me back or tried to force their old stock on me rather then sale me what I wanted. best way to pay back assholes like that is to just buy from another dealer who is willing to go the extra mile the show up at the assholes dealership and tell them being assholes cost them a sale but make sure you say it in front of their bosses and that is what I did lol

[@SuperIanjohnson]

Nice machine. Jon. I have to tell you that the 'I hate phoning' attitude' is just as common here in England, and in every walk of life; it's nothing personal, buddy ! Keep the videos coming, I love them.

[@leomaestas366]

Hi John my name is Leo from Albuquerque NM I follow your channel and I’m very impressed with your work GREAT Looking 130 it will probably help you a lot great job

[@allenbreedlove8906]

That’s awesome man !! Looked for the same machine for awhile and ended up getting a hitachi 130 so same machine just diff colors !! My thumb is also on a foot pedal ... Just got a new to me tandem axle rollback from hertz rental.. Congrats !!

[@johnwatkins9286]

Jon, I’m the same way about answering the phone. I hate having to twist someone’s arm to do business.

[@JCourts2k23]

John Watkins same here, its got to the point where i just dont trust people to call me back when they say they will because most of the time they dont

[@coffeyface2000]

Congrats on the trackhoe purchase 👍 if I was you I'd figure out that squeak on the seat or whatever and get that fixed, that would drive me absolutely nuts lol 😵

[@TheCat793d]

Congrats on the new machine

[@ralphellsworth1019]

Congrats on the machine, It will let you step up your game on a lot of jobs.

[@tacocin]

Congrats! Nice machine!

[@archnuttall5660]

Nice. Hope it holds up and works out for you.

[@silvergrizzly316]

Congrats John! That machine will definitely expand your job opportunities for sure brother. Being a rental it should've been well maintained. Looks GREAT my friend and Josh will demanding a raise now...😁😁😁💵👍👍

[@sonnyblazer5504]

Good luck with the new toy. You seem to handle it like a kid with a TONKA TOY! Enjoy. Sonny (CT)

[@kurtsweetser7861]

Nice work

[@scruffy6151]

If taken care of you should get many hour of work out of it. The same people that do not want to work for you to find a machine are the one's complaining because, they are not able to sell used equipment. Customer service is a thing of the past no matter what service you are selling. Keep doing as you are and you will stay busy when others are crying for work. Congratulation on getting the 130. GOD Bless you and your crew.

[@bmackey4854]

Its sad. Here in Mississippi I can't buy locally either. Have fun with your new toy

[@lakesideranch]

Hey John! Nice machine, congratulations on finally finding your dream unit. Hope it serves you well for thousands of hours! Work safe, enjoy your week. Doug@ the "ranch"

[@tiptoplandsolutions1421]

thx for buying....👍👍👍

[@stoveboltlvr3798]

That seems to be a fine machine!

[@MarkSmith-vb7ym]

Very nice machine but you're so right about salesmen just anything you buy anymore it's really bad why didn't you look at a caterpillar I sure like you guys work keep up the great work

[@forky-reviews-and-rants]

Cannot wait to see Josh he will be like a little kid at Christmas upgrade from the Mini Excavator if its gonna be used on the jobs

[@garyklavon5298]

nice machine good size easy to haul

[@dalehaggart407]

We have a big Yancy next to were i work. They must have millions of dollars in equipment just west of Atlanta.

[@alexlaughton8900]

Is there any reason why you ruled out CASE? I had a similar issue with what you experienced. CASE really stepped up to the plate. I can't say enough about our local dealership...

[@JCourts2k23]

Pretty awesome, congrats

[@RaviPatel-ex8er]

had that back in the day when I was small guy. nowadays I remember those bad salesman. now I don't give them time of my day. and if there the ones selling equipment that's speced out I will go outta my way to get approval on something else

[@chrisharcourt3189]

What year is your machine, looking to buy a similar one? Can I ask what you paid?

[@danwright2300]

So when do we get to see the tow rig you are using to move that new toy around with?

[@floridabrushanddirt2482]

I subscribed, this is the first video of yours I have seen. I like your humble attitude, and the fact you mentioned praying before the big purchase is awesome. I’m in north Florida I’m also getting ready to purchase a 30k lb excavator and I’m probably going with a 130 like this. Still happy with it?

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Yes very happy with 130. I wish it had thumb control on the hand instead of the foot.

[@Nates707]

Upstate Brush Control you can take it to the dealer and they can put it on the joysticks for a fee of course lol

[@swampgatorulm]

Looking buying a 135g right now what you think about the machine.

[@UpstateBrushControl]

If you can find a 120, I would go with that. They are still working some kinks out of the 135.

[@woodchuckforestry293]

So funny, I've been trying to buy an RT-120 for months now same deal. Crazy. It's like I have to beg to give someone my money.

[@Plant_op]

Deeres are great same as hitachi inside the cab they Wer in partnership

[@keithmerrell2196]

So how has the 130 held up?

[@MegaBurntcookie]

What’s your fuel burn on this machine/hour on average

[@dixiemae5042]

Time to dig a swimming pool .... always wanted one of those 🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@drewmurphy2796]

How do you transport it?

[@chadcampbell1219]

I love this excavator

[@vancasdorph3951]

What’s the lift capacity of that machine?

[@michaeltoner2794]

I just got a John Deere 135- 2019 It also has a push blade on it and the rubber tracks . It is terribly boom heavy. If you don't put the blade down the machine Jerks all over the place. I am terribly disappointed. Should have kept are case 135. Plus the John Deere's are like Frankenstein's now most of the parts are from Hitachi. It's pretty much a hitachi painted John Deere colors with a difference seat .

[@jalpa9642]

Jon.... Dirt does not burn very well does it...? =)

[@triple6758]

You hauling that behind pickup or hiring?

[@jeffreid3341]

No way that he can pull that with his pickup.

[@stevesmith-wc2gb]

Sunbelt rentals does the same thing

[@AmraphelofShinar]

It's so aggravating when people say they'll get back with you about a price quote or whatever and they forget all about you. Don't people want to make money? Apparently not many folks actually do.

[@shelbyswarey4741]

Some folks don’t want to spend the money so it’s not even worth it for us to send a quote

[@AmraphelofShinar]

I recognize that this goes both ways as most customers are CHEAP and want you to just give stuff away. I got yelled at once while I was a salesman for not leaving my office whenever I heard the door open. I couldn't see the door from my desk but I could hear who came in the door as the receptionist was always out front talking to people as they came in so I know what you mean when you say customers don't really want to sit down with the finance manager and work out a deal.

[@AndyB718]

Makes fiscal sense,time is $.

[@rakeempeace2991]

I prefer anything else except the the john deere

[@tuffram2165]

Yeah not my favorite but still better than the Sany he found. I would prefer Volvo in this size machine.

[@jacobcrider172]

How much does that bad boy weigh ?

[@DigginLife21]

Jacob Crider they’re right at 30,000 pounds

[@stevesmith-wc2gb]

Yes it would be the 135g model if it zero tail swing

[@AndyM.]

If BINGE WATCHING your channel is wrong, WELL I DON'T WANT TO BE RIGHT!!!!!!!!

[@Scott924m]

Yep John your story is true but unfortunately not uncommon hard to believe that that really goes on but it does I was looking to buy a car recently4 out of 6 adds no answer no call back why bother posting if you're not going to sell something

[@dixiemae5042]

First 👊🏻💪🏻
