    I don't think I have ever seen so many EUCS in one spot before, what a treat, that is a whole bunch of Hulk Green Paint and they are having waaay to much fun.😁

    Several years ago I had an opportunity to ride on a TC-12, even though I had no hearing protection with me. After the second pass I hollered to the operator to stop and let me off. It took me three days before my hearing returned to normal. Now, even with moderate hearing loss, I still love those "screamin' jimmies".

    In the 60’s when Wisconsin, USA was building Interstate 94, I saw dozens of Terex equipment of all kinds for miles n miles…Terex was everywhere! As a boy, it was impressive to witness!

    Live the Terex stuff. Nobody made anything quite as unique as they did. I wish the green machines were still manufactured. The 1st one I ever saw was in Juneau, Alaska in 1974. It was a 72-31 front end loader. What a beautiful machine. Even at the age of 9, I was impressed!

    On a dozer the best way to get a nice smooth spread/push is to just keep the blade as full as possible along with min blade corrections to avoid a wavy type pass. These operators sure know that one eh.

    Sure not knowing the sound of the big Detroit engines. They kept me collecting a pay cheque for many a year. Most engine failures were from breaks/cracks between the liners intake ports. One day they just start spewing all the crank case oil out in just a couple minutes that tell the story of hot shut downs by not caring operators. 10 min is usually all they need to avoid the situation.
