Road Trip Shopping For a New Excavator

[@sonnyblazer5504]

Oh WOW, so exciting and YOU'RE paying for it. I love this shopping and you paying the bill. I have no idea what you should buy and it all depends on your need and usage. That said, I WOULD NOT SKIMP on something you need in the machine because once you pull the trigger, your butt will work hard in that seat and anything you do without, you'll regret. You can always wait. We wish you the very best, in your end result and smart doing all your research. Good luck & God bless! Sonny (CT)

I like the “ Linkers “ bud … We have one ( it’s been painted so I’m not sure on the actual size but it’s about the size of a Komatsu 220 ) and that Link belt is a smooth, very responsive( but not touchy or jumpy ) , comfortable seat and great power.

Vavlo has bigdeal18 as a brand ambassador ....Cat has Jpaiddirt....Hyunday could have Dirt Perfect to represent them.

[@TrevorDennis100]

There you go. You've spotted a hole in the excavator market right there, and an opportunity for Mike. :-) It was _very_ interesting that Mike was able to point out disadvantages with the Volvo when speaking as a non bias and independent equipment elevator. You can't help but think that Chris Guins would not have pointed out those same issues.

[@DirtPerfect]

Sound like a plan to me

[@williammatthews2948]

I really like the Hyundai HX145LCR but it needs wider tracks and a hydraulic thumb. It also needs a crate of replacement mirrors. (Cue the Captain Kleeman music.) Lol. Good luck in finding what you're looking for. I hope you get a good deal. Have a blessed and safe weekend.

[@sassafrasvalley1939]

Right out of the starting gates... had to play the man card... “I’m driving the van... only because...”. Well played sir!!! Too bad those two Excavators are so far apart... would be nice to breed them together and get just what you need! Looking forward to the big reveal.

[@kenzodrow9604]

which one is balanced better just adding the bucket makes a difference

[@DirtPerfect]

Both are good

[@martywoodrow131]

Does the thumb get in the way during general digging

[@brandonring7400]

Komatsu is hands down best on the market. I own a small demolition company and we have tried them all. I like other brands but even with the premium Komatsu get for their product,you end up saving money in the long run because they hardly ever go down. I have a couple of cat next gen tractors ,they are really nice but I don’t see myself owning them once they are out of warranty. On the other hand I have one pc158 that I have put well over 7k hard hours on and only had to preform p/m and replaced one alternator. Just my 2 cents. Hope this helps. P/s run away from JCB I have two and the unit’s are decent but the company’s policy’s suck. My JCB dealer is great but corporate keeps their hands tied.

Since you are keeping the Deere - could either machine share buckets or have either coupler modified to share buckets ?

Yes they can share buckets

The machines you were looking at the first 2 looked like a normal regular size, the Volvo looked like a mid size with the blade on the front but so did the Hyundai but without the blade. What size machine were you more interested in?

[@DirtPerfect]

They are all in the same class

[@brandonmason5822]

@@DirtPerfect Recently the company I work for purchased a Kubota excavator to help with the types of work we're doing. What was thought to be a mini turned out to be a mid size with the big difference in weight class. The machine fits fine on our 12k lbs trailer but weights almost at the trailers ratings. So now we're looking for a 14k trailer and truck to move it legally without hassle from D.O.T , the only truck in the fleet that comes within reason is the f550 dump we have. The Kubota we got is very similar to your Volvo +/- a couple things ,ours doesn't have the on board computer but we have a 6way blade.

[@DirtPerfect]

I agree

[@cwgreen1938]

I think the Hyndaui suits you the best, no doubt if you like a machine you are going to take better care of it and if you take better care of it, it will last longer and give less trouble. If you are satisfied with the service and parts availability for the Hyndaui then the price difference probably won't make that much difference when you stretch it out over three to five years time. You may be able to do your jobs faster and better which might mean you get more jobs to do and you can double up on the payments some months or at least pay on the principal a few times and get it paid for a little quicker which will make your credit look good. I would go get that Hyndaui if I were you. Good luck and keep the videos coming, I like watching you work all the machinery.

Keep up the good work, upgrade your equipment and efficiency! Work safe, stay warm. Enjoy your weekend buddy. Doug@ the "ranch"

[@73DiamondReo]

that hyundai looks pretty close to our Case cx160c the way its layed out. One thing i like to look for is how the tracks react when operating other functions. the type of work im involved in we use the machine more as a crane than for actually digging. The 145 we rented for a month was terrible at that but they might have addressed it by now

[@jbritt2549]

I will tell the blade is a big plus. I got one on my tb260 and use it all the time. You would be suppressed how good and how much you'd use it also stabilizing the machine

I have the Komatsu 138 with a blade , it’s built a lot like the Hyundai. With the zero tail swing if you’re on any bit of a slope your tip the machine up without the blade. I do a lot of retaining walls and setting binblocks you have to have a blade , you need to demo that excavator on a little bit of a slope by the time you put a thumb on and bucket you’ll regret not having a blade. Good luck but I would keep that in the consideration with a zero tail machine. God bless and happy new year

[@MikeL-vu7jo]

the Volvo is a solid choice but the Link Belt didn't Impress me , But what do I know ?

[@DirtPerfect]

Will have to agree

[@timothyball3144]

Very impressed with the lay out of the Hyundai. The only downside is that computer location right under the DEF. It would need some kind of cover over the top of it. Wouldn't want to enclose it since it needs airflow for cooling. The thumb on that Volvo sucks. That thing wouldn't last a month in rock. You can fab extensions for the blade to make it work, but the thumb needs to go in the scrap bin.

[@DirtPerfect]

Agree with the def 100% disagree with thumb it very well built

[@Florian5120Pro]

I think you should test the machines, wich are on the top of your list, on an jobside. And you should check the coasts of spare parts and the time to get them.

[@roperdirt7178]

We just bought a Hyundai 145 with a blade. We compared the Hyundai side by side with the link belt. The Hyundai will lift more than the link belt and is a faster machine. The only think the link belt has over the Hyundai is the smoothness of the controls.

I’m about 2 hours straight north of Indy on 65 if you want to come check it out.

[@williamuskoski1385]

Parrish excavation has the 145 link belt and he loves it. Biggest cab in it's class if I remember right

[@5point3LitersOfLove]

I love my Hyundai mini 35 series and my buddy has a 80 and 160. All three amazing machines for us. Like you stated they are really engineered strong and easy to work on. My dealer support is amazing. I called for a filter kit on my first service. They are 45 minutes away and had an employee that lives in my town drop it off the same night. Dealer support is key. Also in the numbers game they beat others by far. Others offer 0% financing but are 5% more on total price. There is a 2016 Hyundai HX145 LCR with 1285 hrs on it in Orland Park Illinois for $110,000 with WB thumb and quick coupler. Much cheaper then the new one you looked at. Just some food for thought.

One thing about the Hyundai I noticed,it had a single travel pedal that is nice for loading , long travel distances in the machine like I’ve seen you do a lot and unloading off the lowboy so you don’t have to try to perfectly get the travel pedals exactly right on full throttle. That does usually come standard on the most of the bigger machines I do like that Hyundai setup. Can’t complain there all nice, 20th century here you come lol

[@BlueDually4x4]

I don't know if it was the camera, but I'd go with the Hyundai or the Linkbelt just because they sounded much quieter than the Volvo. As for the worn pins, I would bet money on it either having a lot of hours with a vibrator packer or a jackhammer attached to it. As both of those would wear parts out much faster than other attachments. Is the zero swing a must? I would think the easier maintenance and lower transport height of a regular machine would out weight the benefits of the zero swing.

[@richardgray7447]

Service and parts availability is one of the top factors we always consider when buying a new hoe. If we can’t get a service tech out when we need one or we have to wait for several days to get a part shipped in … That’s obviously a major factor in our decision to buy new … because as most of us know , if you have a $300,000+ piece of equipment sitting broke down for a few days waiting on parts !!! That’s a major problem. We need these things up and running so they can continue to make the money that pays for themselves.

[@EddieTheGrouch]

You drove right past me and and didn't stop by for coffee?! I agree the Hyundai looks sweet but how much would you really use the display? Will narrow tracks take away from what you do now? Would the blade on the 140 give you a worthy upgrade in stability and capabilities? They must have done a lot of side sweeping to wear the pins that fast. In short, don't let the bling distract you from what you really need. I don't envy you. It seems that with anything you look to get you can't get all the features you want in one machine or brand albeit an excavator, a GPS, or even a watch. In the meantime you could give the Captain a shovel and strap a saddle on his back. Voice control, good visibility, easy to transport, and music if his singing isn't too bad. Cold starting might be an issue with coffee being more expensive than ether, nowadays.
