An interesting piece of gearhead equipment operating in my 'backyard' the last few days.

They fill one of those trucks in about 30 minutes. What's also kinda cool is it's built locally.

They are amazing machines. When I worked construction my brother and I were installing silt fence around a dump that we were capping. They were using a front end loader with a huge brush cutter (like a big weed whacker ) and we were atleast 1,000 feet away and it shot a rim and tire from a one ton pick up 100 feet in the air and about 2-300 feet past us. Its amazing the power they have in these machines.
But they're definitely fun to watch.

Pretty impressive indeed.
Makes light work of a big job.
