[@DirtPerfect]

[@rockyjustus2829]

Clint lol why doesn't he finish the paystar,,you could help him if he'd turn you loose 😁

[@rockyjustus2829]

You guys are awesome,I really enjoy all your video's DP 's. C&C 's all keep them coming guys

[@mrsclinton]

Still waiting on your bank letter DP to our accounting department for payment approval on this deal?? 🤷‍♀️ 🤔 🤦‍♀️

[@DirtPerfect]

Lol that not after the purchase 😬😁

[@TheBest-ob1kj]

Fun looking and checking everything out! Tks for taking us along❤

[@churlburt8485]

so glad you changed your intro and put family first.

[@kopenhagenkid]

Nice to see Clint and Mrs C in your video Mr Dirt Perfect

[@DirtPerfect]

Had a awesome time with them

[@Bman2020]

Wow lots of goods to be seen and had hope you find what you are after great watch thanks for sharing 👍👋🇨🇦

[@chrishelms1967]

Well at least you had some nice weather

[@donaldhilton731]

Komatsu parts are expensive, but you don't buy many because they are an awesome machine, ran a 355 dozer for about 15 years and was impressed, ran 450 diggers and was also blown away by the fact that they are so under rated from the factory!

[@paulmartin8212]

I like the new beginning. Putting family first is a must for anyone. I know it is especially hard for self-employed guys. Ya gotta make hay when the sun is shining. You will never regret going to that ball game, baton recital or PTA meeting with your wife.

[@Mid-michigan5]

Thanks for taking us along

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks for watching

[@michaelhuhn90]

Clinton did you a favor on the Mack you were looking at, good friends are hard to find. Keep looking Mike you'll find your dream truck. Keep up the good work Mike!

[@larryehrlich57]

If I remember correctly, Mike started out as a professional mechanic...am I wrong? Please reply if you know.

[@johnirwin1837]

Hey Mike, Speaking of building ponds with scrappers. Last fall north of you in Jennings Co, in the country a couple of miles south of Scipio they built a pond in a flat field using two pull scrappers with International 4 wheel drive tractors. It was no quick job though.

[@jeffmentzer9186]

Nice new intro Mike! As always, a BIG thank you for bringing us along on your journey. Disappointing but Clinton probably saved you a from a ton of trouble!!!!

[@DMAN10]

Hit and miss at the auctions…all part of the game. Thanks for sharing DP!

[@glennspreeman1634]

sure said a mouthfull when you talked about cost and difticulty of moving equipment from job to job!!

[@robertchaffee5662]

If so you would have been in my neighborhood, I would have enjoyed to meet you both! Dang!

[@stuartbailey3824]

DP, love the scrapper, but I wasn't thinking that BIG just a tow behind would maybe better suited for you. That one is already green lol.

[@stuartbailey3824]

@dirt__perfect I thought we were talking, lol. How do I contact you? Can I do it on contact you on Facebook messenger or use this name for me on FB messenger.

[@miachelandcarolynkerschiet2730]

That old truck sure would look good sitting outside the Derby mart

[@spudgamer6049]

My local county road department used to have a pair of those they used when pulling ditches on dirt roads. They'd follow the graders and pick up all the trash and stuff that the graders pulled out of the ditches, then dump it somewhere off the road.

[@Drew6709]

My cents, scrapers are best for road building if using one. But if the company has multiple machines, then road building & mass material moving. Or used in place of a dump truck.

[@terryrogers1025]

Hang in there, you will find that MACK triaxle, it will come out of no where. Thanks for the update sir.

[@clayseale]

That taylor forktruck is made just down the road from my hometown. Really great company.

[@MustangCharles-f4n]

I drove a mack like that for 5 yrs, that multi speed reverse was a blast. Great truck.

[@tonycole613]

DP I’ve always enjoyed you and Chris at the auctions Sales. There’s a lot of stuff y’all look at like you said about the haul truck you put lipstick on a pig, but you still got a pig🫣🤭

[@thomasdesmond2248]

DP that Taylor fork truck is a 50 ton. They are commonly used at steel mills. I've seen one operate at Tamco Steel in Fontana California. They made rebar of all sizes. God bless

[@CMDSR]

Keep looking Mike. I think you’ll find one soon.

[@mslorry3420]

My husband and myself did the February auctions of Yoder & Frey and Ritchie Brothers in Orlando. Tons of items to look at and play with. Good luck!

[@joeanonemouse]

To bad about the Mack dump truck. It looked like a beaut. I like the auction videos and seeing the other youtubers there with you. Great video. Thank you DP.

[@robertchaffee5662]

Beauty is not everything, it's about performance!

[@rockman531]

Howdy Mr. Dirt, Lots of fun watching the gang get into all sorts of trouble!! Hope you get what you want! Take Care, Jim

[@joejohnson7097]

Mike get it time you will get the dump you are looking for. It's good to see you, Clint and Chris to how you all get along well with each other be able to joke and cut up. Thanks for your videos

[@garymessina1609]

Great auction in my opinion the Mac would be the best thing to buy great video thanks Mike and Chris

[@michaelpage9883]

It’s good to have friends like party pooper Clint. Pointed out some things on the dump truck at Yoder & Fry and saved you some heartache and money. Keep looking, you will find one.

[@michaelpage9883]

Hey DP, just so you know the scammers are on here again. Had a response yesterday from them. 25 years in law enforcement taught me better than that.

[@ClaytonHartin]

Up in the northern state we have problem with the exhaust running in the bed with bed rot from the inside. All that heat creates moisture and at the end of the day it freezes. Next day you fire it up all the moisture pools to the bottom of the inside part of the bed. It will rot out after years of use but it handy for asphalt use!!

[@timfischer5684]

I used to run a 627B cat Scraper for years great machine to operate twin engines lots of power. However you are correct they have their place

[@dougyurecko6500]

There were some real gems at those auctions. Someone has to keep you guys down to earth. Clint does a good job of that, he is a wealth of knowledge. Good used dump trucks seem hard to find.

[@Sjanzo]

Dumptrucks have a hard life anyway, and North American dumptrucks dont have planetary hub reduction axles like the European. Do American dumptrucks have two speed transfer cases too ? That combo really saves the transmission, and purpose built planetary axles last a million miles without a rebuild too...

[@robertchaffee5662]

Yeah, you need a scraper for digging ponds and lakes. So much faster.

[@DirtPerfect]

Who cares I need to make money to stay alive have covers this so many times way it makes absolutely no sense for us to run a scraper

[@Jimmyfisher121]

Love the new intro Mike, just looks better.

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@ronsatzler5771]

So the hyd lift cylinder is missing a stage. Swap for the right cylinder. Looks easy for you and MBTS to rebuild and install one from a salvage yard and fix the dump body dents.

[@mischef18]

Really like these auction videos bro there is sure plenty to view and ya run into great company. Safe travels

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Mr Dirt Perfect

[@thomaskraan5191]

Nice new dump truck; may be i'll see a vid of it this year...LOL....can't wait

[@daniele.woodhead1218]

DP another amazing 5 🌟 video I believe you'll find something soon and it will make a fabulous video as well as always God bless yah from Gaffney South Carolina viewer.

[@chillywilli]

Patience comes a long way. As long as the C8500 still runs you have time to search for the right truck.

[@ibookgeek01]

Drove through Derby this afternoon…nice to see some of the equipment sitting in the lot at the market

[@DirtPerfect]

Yup will start moving out this week

[@charlesfreed7834]

Interesting look at all that different equipment some good some junk used to live there in Bushnell Florida a lot different around there now

[@davidcaulk6921]

Erie PA! That's about an hour up the road from me.

[@wizzlefits]

We had a scraper that got used 3 or 4 times in 20 years. It was great for stripping topsoil but sucked once you hit hardpan. Overall for pond building, it was a to costly. It did really shine leveling large fields/lots though.

[@justingulick6747]

Mike that was one hell of an ending shot. It was cool how it came out of those metal doors. You'll find the one soon enough don't worry buddy. Take care God bless

[@robertchaffee5662]

Richy brothers in Mulberry, FL.?

[@cyndikarp3368]

Scrappers are great for field leveling. Besides, it's military green. Would be a great addition to your fleet.

[@martiemartin9531]

Like the sprint car, we be at Hattiesburg Mississippi on 5th to race the new car . My friend Channin Tankerley races and I pit for him.

[@robertchaffee5662]

Your going to get a semi with either a short bed or long bed sooner or later. Save you in trips.

[@rudyfisher7660]

What you do is you buy really really good driver seat and just move the old driver's seat over to the passionate side and that way you'll have a nice air ride comfortable seat

[@pds8311]

With all the energy that you're putting into finding a truck . Lt. Dan could have been up and running hahaha .

[@jeffdrier4460]

2 very different trucks were talking about here

[@DirtPerfect]

Yup very different trucks correct

[@kidkv]

That and he would save money finshing up Lt. Dan

[@paulprigge1209]

Apples and oranges!

[@splatterize]

you: I want a steak me: Have some fish

[@BealyGood]

There’s an auction coming up around here soon. Road trip! 😁

[@colestroud8300]

Ritchie brothers in Durham?

[@BealyGood]

@@colestroud8300 This is a farmers auction out towards Rocky Mount

[@lomans2]

Fun times. Lots of potential projects that would probably take a couple years to start getting a return on ... lol.

[@robmatthews7972]

Y`all are an entertaining crew with this episode. Buying from auctions and most personal sales - you can bet its very worn out or an expensive repair soon.

[@coltongarber8087]

The start up sound on that John Deere ADT haul truck sounds good

[@GICK117]

Thank you so much for cleaning up your intro. Perfect intro for Dirt Perfect.

[@coltongarber8087]

That was a CAT 315 Next Generation next to the brand new Hyundai you were just looking at.

[@yvonnejohnson1557]

Hey DPI big fork truck looks like it picks up shipping containers. Tks from gary

[@clarencewiles963]

Thumbs up 👍 keep looking!

Welcome back this cold Saturday morning February 18th local time 7 o'clock AM Temperature 25ﾟ🚜👍WS NC

Bought a nice Lincoln welder from a Ritchie Bro's a few years ago

[@ramtuff2007]

love the mack trucks and freightliner,kenworth

[@nicclark9791]

Mostly quads up are way, its dot thing here.

[@jaidenwilliams_450]

and the two yello baby buttons on shifter u shift gears I drive a new 775 at my rock quarry

[@earlhengel1239]

I agree with you. I knew a guy that would run up to 30 at and he said that was good. But, it's not work just wanted the time it takes too long to do something the dozer will out push it. Theory it takes several to do work within a time limit. Sincerely Nick

[@legrandebadger]

I think Mike should buy a huge long reach excavator so he can stack the next brush fire even higher. 👌

[@SpartanZapp]

Jerry will still stick a tree on top somehow.

[@cathiwim]

But it doesnt have a Thumb!

[@garymurt9112]

​@@cathiwim they put grapples on them

[@pdm1289]

If you get a fire big enough so it gets hot enough NORAD can notice it and send out local law enforcement to check on the source. The heat signature can temporarily mimic launch signature. Accidentally having metal in the fire catch fire can contribute to those high heat signatures. Be careful out there.

[@tomrunge2016]

Lol

[@WLBExcavation]

Lol, that western star @45:15 has been to almost every auction from up here in Mi, to Florida. I know the trucking company that originally bought it, VanKampen Trucking out of GR Mi. I don't believe the thing has ever had a trailer on it. I think they had it built for a special Heavy haul project and it fell through.

[@robinredman5192]

Little Short in the Frame Section=Perfect for Arron😅🤣😂 and the rename it TBTS😁!! John here, from the back-roads of Northeastern Tennessee.

[@stevenkimbrell8796]

Well Mike I have enjoyed the video of all of the equipment and that is what I enjoy most about you you go through the steps talk about each and every one of the tractors or excavator dump truck even the pan scraper that was pretty cool I enjoyed your channel and I also enjoy Chris letsdig18 I watch both of y'all do y'all's thing on the jobs whether it's doing a driveway or a foundation for a house or building a pond I enjoyed both you and Chris weather whatever you're doing whatever your building thank you for sharing the videos

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks appreciate that

[@thomasdesmond2248]

DP could you see Chris in a subdivision. With the Case Minotaur with steel tracks in a subdivision. LoL God bless

[@Denis-tu1pd]

Don't forget to straight stack it .

[@sheilahead673]

Interesting adventures

[@patrickcolahan7499]

One thing that would be nice to come across at the auction is a tailgate for old Budda along with a new dump truck. Problem I see with auction these days is the prices that equipment and tooling is bringing. It is insane. Thanks very much for sharing.

[@kenore4003]

Tailgates on haul trucks are fine for hauling mud but in the way when hauling brush or concrete.

[@DirtPerfect]

Don’t think I would ever use it

[@ronbuskirk1175]

Love the opening with the door, did you make that or dowload it from some place

[@johnsmith-xr6qy]

Shout out to Diesel Creek, Matt you need to see this one!

[@busterbailey370]

Another great video thank you keep them coming please

[@Cedarsman.]

It was an impressive episode DP

[@DirtPerfect]

Thanks

[@P-J-W-777]

Use to run a Taylor Fork Lift like that but it was new at the time to take the derricks off pulling units and mobile drilling rigs as well as pick up the carrier to move them around the yard. It’s amazing how much that forklift can actually pick up. The only difference is our had dual tire’s on the front. I’m not a dump truck operator so I’m curious as to why a double frame truck is a no-go for you as a dump truck? Seems to me the heavy duty frame would be a better option for the weight.

[@snoops606]

I ran one of them forklifts in a woodmill

[@tophauler8626]

mike what was the forks on the center of rear bumper? all of our trucks at abf are single seaters so that truck doesn't look unusual to me at all.

[@michaelmullins1290]

All of you guys in one place makes some funny content.

[@jasonthompson6255]

Must be a laugh riot with you boys hanging out

[@kittty2005]

@ 36:12 at least the engine in that Komatsu sounds like a diesel engine and not a lawnboy lawn mower. Nice unit.

[@kennyarmer4092]

I noticed you didn’t check out the motor graders, I myself spend about 80percent of my time at work in one, I like Cat when it comes to a blade though, I love going to the equipment auctions.

[@reedburke7762]

Good video Mike.

[@DavidMSymonds]

Sounds like Dp owes a check and a big bag of jerky to Clint. What color is Kevin painting it ? 😆

[@BG-vq9fd]

Interesting to see the verity of equipment.

[@The-Deadbolt-Deputy]

This may be a dumb question but why does the exhaust heat the bed on a haul truck? Is it so wet loads dont freeze to it ? Thanks DP , I love the auction videos.

[@BlueDually4x4]

That is pretty much the reason they do that.

[@Daihatsu_Hijet]

asphalt haulers also use heated beds

[@colestroud8300]

I think Wade needs that Taylor forklift for the mill. He might take the whole place down with it though 😂 you usually see them at rail yards moving containers around.

[@Crewsy]

@5:42 Are you showing us the view MBTS would have if he was driving. Looking forward between the steering wheel and the dash. 😂🤣😂🤣 Sorry Aaron.

[@frankcooper6911]

Clinton is a Smart Man !! He knows his Stuff !!

[@williambryant5946]

Mike you for sure don't need a push type scraper pan. If you even wanted one you'd definitely want one that has the paddles. I call them all pans and paddle pan for the ones with paddles. Mike I don't need to explain to you why you would need one with paddles but I'll explain for anyone else that doesn't know. With a pan that doesn't have the paddles, 90% of the time you have to push it with a dozer to get it loaded. Paddle pans have paddles mounted to two chains that spin and grab the dirt and pull it into the pan as you cut it so its self loading, so 90% of the time it doesn't need to be pushed by a dozer. The company I worked for had a early to mid 1990s Cat 613 paddle pan. Only thing I didn't like about it was if you got the pan unlevel while cutting and running the paddles, the chains and paddles would jump off the idle pulleys at the top where they turned to come back around. If you caught it fast enough you could reverse them and get them back on easily. If you didn't catch it in time and that didn't work you'd spend a good while trying to pry and push them back on. Learned real quick not to run them off all the way. Mike doesn't make deep enough cuts and at the same time have a long way to transport the dirt cut out. That's what pans are for. Making deep long cuts that then requires the dirt to be moved a long distance. They will work good for large deep ponds that have really long dams yes but Mike or Chris either one don't do enough ponds like that to justify having a pan for the occasional one that may come along. Even with large deep cuts, track hoes and offroad dump trucks are just as fast as pans if not faster now. All depends on the job at hand. 👍

[@rudyfisher7660]

I you could take a picture of that pattern were what giraffe has beyond certain s**** and all that then you can take it out to CNC and have them to print you off a little one that you can put on your window so you don't know what was going on

[@frankcooper6911]

That Hard Clay . You'd still have the 750j Rip it up . That's a Big Job Boy . Like you said Mike . Not Ready .

[@scottdennis7441]

There's a Mack dealership 4 miles from me. Lischkge Motors.. we always called it the round barn ( if you saw it, you'd know why..LOL )

[@MRKUE]

I Like the new intro...I was waiting for it since you mentioned a new one.

[@glynngrauer3962]

Whatever Clint has in mind for you would be great he's a great friend to you and wouldn't let you down you should go with it, Mike
