PaulTon:
Those 3 first dudes got fired, to be replaced with one man and his cat.
That's one big Puddy Tat. looks like a 385CL to me. 185474lbs, or 84130kg
Either way you weigh it, it still comes in at a whopping 92 1/3 metric Tonnes
Considering it comes with a 4 yard bucket, however will handle up to a 7 yard bucket, the hole is 8 yards of dirt, the actual digging would take about 30 seconds.
