    Steve, your a stand up guy, and like the rest of us, stand up guys, you expect everyone else to be the same, unfortunately that's not always the case. It's to bad some people feel they have to screw other people over. Okay, with that said, I'm just like you. I'm anti bullshit, now, that's a nice looking 315, I've always liked a 315, you can do alot of work with it, trailer it on a tag trailer. It's a great all around machine, probably one of Caterpillars best. I really look forward to your videos, I love the fact it's a Family operation, and you get to work with your son, who's coming along pretty good. Just keep being you, it's what makes the channel

    Hi Steve. That sucks. Sorry you are having to deal with that. I'm am the kind of person that believes that a handshake is as good as a contract. There are too many people that, just like that dealership, are only out for themselves. That dealership should be responsible for your attorney fees also. Anyway, let's hope it gets dealt with and finished up quickly. life is too short to stay focused on the negative. Rather spend our time talking about the positives in our lives. Take care.

    He did you dirty, no question about it!! You should find out exactly what he paid the other dealership for it (in case he offered less than they were asking and they accepted it). They knew exactly what they were doing, committing fraud and screwing you. They need to learn a lesson here, a hard expensive lessen if necessary, so they don't do this again to someone else (especially if this only costs them "profit"+, not court and fraud charges). There is no telling how many others they have done similar to and will/would do in the future to. Not cool dealership!!! That aside, nice machine!! Can you get a manual or hydraulic quick coupler for it ($$$$$ at that size I'm guessing)? That will get you the right bushings and seals for that connection and you could then still use that bucket without an issue (that's an expensive "fix" to a wrong bucket ear setup, but it's easy to suggest spending your money.....😂) Hopefully this gets resolved to your liking and you can start to feel good about the "new-to-you" machine!! Have a good one!!

    I wonder, have you notified your lender the machine they lent the purchase price on is not the age and hours they had been told, or the money lent isn't the same as the money paid? The loan to value ratio is certainly skewed against the lender on this transaction. Assuming your agreement with the seller happens.

  • @DirtBrute

    @DirtBrute

    Жыл бұрын

    Oh yes they were notified by my lawyer. I won the case and they gave me everything I was asking for. The lender doesn’t seem to care because the machine is more valuable then the money lent . So as long as they get their monthly payment and the machine has full insurance coverage they could care less is what I was told . I should probably do an update video but there is not much to tell . It wasn’t hard to prove what they did so was a easy case to win . Thanks for watching!
