Volvo really needs to up their game supporting these two more directly. Such good sports and good operators.
Chris is like, “you know you screwed up on finding a 350 for me”
Exactly, I was taken aback that they didn’t work something out for him. He’s been Mr. Volvo forever. SMH
He was very open about that they tried but that the used machine market is very tight and he was very clear that he didn’t want a new machine for price reasons
You can hear the respect Chris and Mike have for each other.
Both can put a straw in a empty pop cup with the lid on using an excavator bucket.
Great 👍 watching dirt perfect diesel creek and of course dig18 overall content 110%
Mike had the advantage on the mini. He's used to a loose bucket on his 120 .
the 120 not lose its the mini 304 that is lose.
@@johnunsicker7440I think both are. :-)
🤣
He did a full pin an bush job on the JD 120
I remember watching Chris back in the day with the mud mats and excavators in the swamps.
This was a lot of fun thanks for having us
You guys are Very entertaining, and damn good at what you do. Thank you. 😊
Never a dull moment when these two are together. Thanks for posting Volvo.
Now that was more fun than I thought it would be, thanks guys, and our perfect young lady host, she made the fun, funnier.
Remember, Mike instals all those concrete blocks on his own and gets hooked and unhooked without any problem. Practice makes Perfect.
Watching these two guys is always hysterical when you get them together. Thanks for sharing.
So glad to see Volvo supporting two of their biggest salesmen. Two great people working with one great company.
it seems like DP is Chris's brother from another mother. they have a friendship and rivalry like 2 brother's have. Great fun to watch.
Its all ways good to watch these guys together 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mike and Chris have a lot of respect for one another. They love to have fun and pick at one another thanks for the video
Great fun, Chris n Mike y'all had me laughing.🤣 You two have developed a life long friendship. Great friends are hard to come by.
Mike uses a loader more but Chris still done a good job lol 😆 the banter was epic
That was fun, I hope Mike and Chris had fun. Thank you and have a great day.
It’s always fun to watch these two do what they do best. They just love to play in the dirt with nice equipment. Well done fellas
Love the video thes two his one of my favery guy's on youtube .
Two of the best heavy equipment operators on the planet !
You forgot about Andrew , lol. These guys are 2 and 3 respectively.
@@jamesmorgan6782really?
@@Del-27 yes indeed
@@Del-27 Andrew Camatara of course.
@@jamesmorgan6782 if you say so, ! Way down the list 😂I just nearly fell out my cab laughing,
Chris and Mike is so hilarious to watch do stuff like this together 😂😂😂 the same as when Mike and Chris competed to see who could load an A60H with a 950 excavator 😂😂
After an afternoon of playing in the sandboxes, the boys need to come back inside to take their afternoon naps 💤 💤 💤
Really Great Video featuring two (2) of the Best in the Bidnez. Thanks! 😬👍🙏
Mike stacking those concrete cubes really paid off this time.
If I was a single young man like Chris I believe I would take a shine to that gal. She's purdy and sweet !
This was fun to watch….Dirtball tv….😂
Go, Chris!
Loved it. Great guys.
Mike had the advantage from hooking those retainer blocks
Chris is THE surgeon.
Chris is always the best😊
well done all. look forward to one day seeing some of those electric vehicles on a dam project
chris is still the best operator in the world by a mile🤣🤣🤣
that was great! thanks to both of you for the laughs
Gotta love the Volvo gal
Great video guys! Thanks Mike & Chris!
mike got a lot of practice with pole swinging with the pilings hes done on various river docks
I do believe Chris and the young lady have a bit of a vibe going on there.
Great video looking forward to the next one
It's always great to see Mike and Chris competing against each other at any of volvo's exhibitions and your guaranteed a really good laugh, but the two of them show us the TH-cam viewers what is coming up in the excavation world, I'm am a volvo man from truck's to the excavators and I have driven and operated both the I've driven truck's all over Europe and excavators in the UK, thank you volvo for another great video. Just a after thought volvo missed a trick when Chris was looking for a bigger excavator and he had to go else where for his next machine.
I watch both of them and have fun.
Nicely done ... 💯👍
Guaranteed views, pretty host. She was funny to. If you pay attention, Letsdig18 and Dirt Perfect are in this video.
Wow, First random feed of my morning. Hot coffee, great cigar, Chris and Mike slingin' mud, I'm going to have an awesome day. I hope you do too!
2 great guys
Luv muh boys. 😘😘
the gal did a great job for Volvo. she kept things moving and interesting.
Way to go Mike. Crazy quiet but quick response.
It's always funny when Chris and Mike get together. Too bad they don't live closer.
Great job, yo, enjoy the video, Yao need to do that more, we all enjoy it.👍NC
Good job guys
I really liked the video guys. Both of you have awesome skills. I have watched letsdig18 more but dirt ball tv is great to. Very cool.
Mike’s advantage was obvious. He has so many projects where he is hooking/unhooking concrete blocks, and placing them. Don’t forget the number of clay pipe he put out into his field for tiles…although they were free, breaking them was wasted labor/fuel plus clean up. Fun stuff to watch and they’re both diplomatic ambassadors for the industry, Volvo, and now, Hyundai….Case for DP (being punny, he’d rather have a case of Pepsi).
Their will always be a place for electric equipment.
That was pretty cool !!
Very cool good job Volvo.
That was pretty cool 👍🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
I remember Chris singing along to his music when he was not much older that 18😂
But his language was a little colorful back then. Not that I minded but some would.
Hey ,Mike isn't wearing his Hindi Cap ????
But seriously both are very good operators, possibly in their own ways ,and if you watch their videos you'll understand.
Still can't see these two in an Electric Excavator because of what they do .
two of my three favorites. logger wade of course is no 1
Having fun , that is what counts.
You should be begging LD18 to run nothing but Volvo.
He has made your brand more popular than it ever has been in North America. Give him a new fleet to make videos with and you’ll sell way more machines.
LOL I like Chris and i think he is a great youtube personality and partner kind of for Volvo but to say he has made Volvo more popular than ever is a bit over the top isnt it? His viewers arent the type of people usually out buying these expensive machines because the people buying these machines are too busy working to sit at home watching youtube!
Thats were jcb's sit on the front parralell linkage would come into play the visibility is next level over the z-frame
Thank you for the fun, Volvo! I do wish you to benefit from this.
Chris is cool no matter what he does. Mike just loves the attention. Ego.
Mike loves it huh? Every youtuber loves the attention , its kinda that attention they are seeking to have a successful channel. Show me a youtuber that doesnt love attention and have an ego and i will point you to their subscriber count down in the low teens!! LOL EGO
LOL, I wanna see a re-match!!!
Dirt perfect said the most important thing about Machinery.
"Application" .
Those two gents sure have fun! And the comrodery is awsome! But what i want to know is when is mike getting a try at chris's new toy?
Two people that are good for your brand... I am surprised Volvo didn't work harder to keep Chris in Volvo excavators.
Chris said that Volvo tried. A Dutch saying translates to: "Where there's nothing, even the emperor loses his right."
@@chrislaarman7532Didn't know that saying.
@@aman-fd9xx Well, here you are. :-)
The Dutch text reads: "Waar niets is, verliest zelfs de keizer zijn recht." (There may be minor changes.)
Mike had practice with the pole drop from the river side dock work.
should have done the pipe test with the 950 ha ha ha
Volvo should give Chris new big toy for not hook him up for the big one he just went and bought!!! Exactly for all of the PR he does and for volvo
Just how many people sitting at home on their butts watching youtube videos do you think went out and dropped a few hundred thousand dollars on a new Volvo because Chris uses them?
I'm not sure who was hitting on who, cooperate or Chris
hahaha you couldnt be more off on that one.
I would have picked up two at a time, one on each fork and just pivoted the loader instead of all that backing
So close in abilities.
Cool…👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Why not ask Andrew I believe he might just show you up, lol. Just a thought.
Camarata would show up and start breaking stuff and saying how big of a pile of junk it is , then fix it better with his chainsaw!! LOL
But , is it betterthan Chris's Hyundia???
The girl is very beautiful and charming 😊
👍 ma' boys
If you look real close you can see mikes head just got a little bigger 😂
Ran a 35 weight electric and it took 2 hours for twenty ft not good for speed
I’ll soon be starting a new TH-cam channel "let’s dig perfect" or "let’s dig dirt" or "perfect dirt dig" (Ok ,I’ll stop) even tho I have absolutely no experience in the craft ! Do I need to add "I’m joking" to this post?
I want to know how Diesel Creek got his handle. 😂
That the name of a creek next to country property, it had a diesel spill years ago and people started referring to the creek as diesel creek. That where he got the name.
@@1955mrmark It was Matt that caused that diesel leak into the creek too wasnt it?
Thanks Volvo.
Who is more skilled with worn out pins lol
All I was think was well it makes perfect sense to me DP has two children and LD18 doesn't have any children .
Dirt Mediocre? No, too hard to spell!
Well, he got around tuit eventually
Dirt perfume can't operate until his machine is filthy on the inside 😂
Drinking the ev Kool aide,
So, I thought let’s dig 18 built golf courses
Why not play cornhole, with excavators, with thumbs.
would be faster to pick up 2 nuts at once to stack.
But most of the time I do win 🤣🤣
As big and influential as you are, you dont have someone that can either weld these pieces or machine a new piece completely.
I’m switching over to watching paint dry videos. Sounds more entertaining. You’re moving dirt!
Seems to me the main downsides of EV machinery are endurance & longevity
Once they can operate for a standard working day without needing charging & power cells have a guaranteed 6 year life, diesel is toast.
A guy with almost all Volvo equipment vs a guy with an old Volvo haul truck. Makes sense
Volvo never 2 competitions, you always need 3.
