Didn't know Adam went out on his own. He was good
But you could see that coming.
I got my recorder set for new episodes. Haven't seen

Maybe they'll be some on there when I get home this week.
I can watch that show for hours on end.

Here are the two rotators I had the privilege of operating in my career. The red on is a Century 1130, small by most standards but still capable, and the single axle International is one of only 50 16 ton units made for civilian use, Miller Industries makes a lot of these for overseas military units.

I was beginning to wonder. Jamie loved and babied his precious 700K rotator. And to sell it? That's drastic. It must have cost him a thousand deaths to do it.
Western flyer Thanks this. -
The only thing I wonder is, I don't think Jamie had $700,000 cash in the bank, so and I'm just thinking hypothetically here, because a mizer like my self would do something like this, for $700,000 couldn't Jamie have looked on the papers a little bit and bought 2 used Rotators for the price of 1 brand new Rotator?
Obviously they wouldn't be as nice and what not and they would be used and probably each need $50,000 worth of work and that's probably a low number to fix what ever ailed them you know how it is when you buy used, but then he would have two. Of course there probably are not that many Rotators out there so that probably scrapes that idea, but it was just me being Mizerly.
The Step Son Brandon was a B-word and had no business in that business he didn't want to do it anyway why they tried to force that.
Actually my favorite character is Ken Munkhouse. Ken seems like a pretty competent fellow and heck he kept that one truck from driving down the side of a cliff in the dark. -
Ken is cool. He just gets the job done,no complaining.
There's no way I would have even went that far back
On that frozen ice covered road in the middle of nowhere
By myself.
I got the pucker factor just watching him slide backwards
Down that icey hill.Mike2633 Thanks this. -
Just to annoy all you non-Canadians stuck at season 3:
brian991219 Thanks this. -
I was just going to say Quiring is what a guy who has 2 heavy wreckers and an old medium duty single axle and a guy who works for him and 2 sons and he always seems to get the jobs done no problem. He has decent equipment, but not over the top fancy like Jamie no rotator or anything like that, yet he always seems to get the job done. Also he doesn't have all the employees breaking stuff and causing trouble you never see Quiring with a broken rig.
I mean I know it's TV, but you can tell Quiring really knows his stuff and Jamie does have some compitent guys you don't see Ken Munkhouse complaining or bashing things up or doing anything like that. Same with that fellow Don who was up on the mountain with Ken he seems to be alright.magoo68, bzinger and brian991219 Thank this. -
Oh god I would have said forget it on that job and I know the boss kind of reemed them out, but that was probably done for TV truth be told if I was the boss I would have said "Thank you for knowing that you were beat and turning around so we wasted some fuel but I'll take that any day over someone dying or a truck off the side of a cliff. In reality we probably shouldn't have even taken or attempted that job."bzinger Thanks this.

He's got a couple flatdeck trucks as well. Plus I think he has a couple old Cat dozers.
Want to buy one of them?
brian991219 and Mike2633 Thank this.
