I bought a CAT EL240B new in 1990. I thought I wore it out by 2004 but it was sold to a small company and after some hoses, cylinder work, welding, new seat, exhaust repairs, new paint, etc., it's still running today. Your friend has some nice Cat machines and I wish him the very best of luck! ....13

My wife says I keep buying junk I keep trying to prove her wrong and I just end up proving her right 🤣🤣🤣

Wow, this was four years ago?! I bet the shiny Cat is well paid off by now!

good on Charlie and his wife's advice . never believed in buying equipment so old you were getting generations of peoples problems to deal with . hell no. thanks Chris.

325 Cat brings back memories. Bought one new and spent a lot of hours in the seat. Had it for 11 years, it n very had any serious problems, always ran great.

Nice machine CAT 325D L looks very nice brand new bucket thanks for sharing Chris 👌👍✌😊

Good on Charlie the 325 looks nice I'm sure it will be his pride and joy for years to come. I respect guys like Charlie that have made ends meet with older gear and now he deserves that nice d series cat it should cure his illness.

The difference between men and boys is the price of their toys.

nice to see you acknowledge others that have assisted you in your world of work. Nice, honourable

I'm happy for you Charlie, hard work pays off the equipment. Smart man...

Good to see Charlie again, and that a nice machine he has now !!!!!

No dents and fresh paint made that machine look really good.

Great upgrade Charlie more power to you. Gosh you look good standing to your new machines

hell yea hold your head up high and be proud of what hard work will get you

great to see Charlie doing well, really like his videos!

I hope Charlie starts posting again soon! Miss watching his videos

Nice. I appreciate his humility. A real nice guy. Proof that good things happen to good people.

Nice to see people doing well in this business. I know its pretty rough out there.

Congrat's Charlie!

Hell ya Charlie you deserve it keep on going glad to see he's doing very well for himself

Glad to see Charlie again! Been wondering why he hasn't posed much.. Hopefully he can film some more soon

Good machine to a good home. Awesome.

I've actually never seen a EL300B excavator, hell I didn't know it existed. Really awesome, guys.

I bet that old 300 is a beast for loading trucks. Be great pit or farm machine. I know charley has it running an working like new

lovely machine !

No he's cookin' ! Looks like those 'happy pills' would have the Cat symbol, printed in them.. This looks really good. Well, some guys like Cat, and even some guys like Volvo, so whatever floats your boat, I guess. They all make great subjects in the video's, thanks for this Chris.

man has some monaaaay

nice stuff Charlie way to go pard!!

Congrats Charlie, that is awesome! Long way from that Koehring Bantam 166, huh?

good to see Charlie again there is no cure for the sickness

Good looking machine, I think that a haul truck will be next though, instead of the rental

I'm glad he's still in the business I wondering why he hasn't made any video's in a long time.

Yeah, we definitely missed Charlie and his shenanigans. I was beginning to wonder if he fell in the same hole as Dirt Hand did and disappeared. Alright Chris, where did you bury ole Dirt Hand and Rockin Randal at? LMAO !

I used to run a EL240 about 10 years ago it was a good machine

It was very old then

It is way of life to buy junk, try to make it running, sometimes working, often costing more than buy better at began. I know I do that too.

it was good to Charlie is alive and well

Can you show that EL300 running. Id also like to see the new one running as well. Thanks!

That's a really boxy excavator

He cracks me up

Am I missing it about the "happy pills" that were said to Charlie in a kidding way? It sounded to me these pills were medication that Charlie had been taken prescribed by a doctor. For what? Depression? If it was for some type of mental illness, then there should be no kidding around. You don't play about that. If I am wrong, I humbly apologize. I mean that... This is my favorite KZread site. I can watch it for hours. Thanks for the great videos!

It was a joke man, obviously. You sound like a real stiff/ odd one

I recently invested my life savings into a used Komatsu PC60-7. I'll only be buying one excavator. I'm cashed out.

I started 42 years ago with nothing and I got half of that left so lmao

You seem to have some good friends.

Last I remember Charlie was workin' on a school or something.

Machine has fairly low hours for being 8 years old even with a new paint job you can tell is been taken care of it should last Charlie a long time. The ball is rolling he's going to get the taste for newer iron he will slowly upgrade his equipment the biggest upgrade he's making he's buying a hydraulic thumb he will wonder how he ever worked with out one.

Good channel! Why do I want an excavator all the sudden? Chris, I'll buy you a beer if you can get Charlie to channel up again lol. Ya'll are great! Except Justin, I think letsdig18 would be letsdig17 without Justin.

Did Charlie hit the lottery? Does all that equipment in the shot belong to him? How many operators does he emplyee? I new from past videos he is an ace mechanic but I had no idea that he was a big operator. I'm very impressed!😎🇺🇸

Blanchard is a dealer in rock hill right?

What the hell have you bought Charlie? Best part

show video of rebuilding the 250 PLZ that would be sooo great fix it PLZ

Is the old super dog and big blue still around or did the w900 replace that? that vid of you an your buddy driving it is one of the funniest videos!

You make the money in the dirt!

You need to get Charlie back on video or making a few...

Now put er to work and make some money to pay the bills LOL.

Poor Charlie, next stop "therapy" when his pills start to wear off.

I wonder what medication Charlie's taken? I'm being serious, for me personally the meds I take have saved my life.

That's the way to go buying equipment to make your living with, don't buy junk, look at Chris he has good stuff.

sometimes its good to buy junk just buy the right junk at the right price take account that the lower price is because you have to put more money into the machine. once you can no longer use a machine on the job because of its problems the price drops dramatically
