You are the one who has operated both machines so we expect you to tell us the difference...but what I can say is you've been very lucky to have had the opportunity to run both machines and that is because of your ability to film and tell a story that keeps us all entertained...plus you have the kind of personality that makes your audience think of you as a ''friend" which in turn makes the manufactures want you to feature their equipment on your channel...And that makes it a win for all of us!
Thank you both. I had heart surgery 6 weeks ago and you have made my days fly by and ease my mind about my issues. I have enjoyed both your channels and now many others. Please continue to be yourselves and make great content.
Thanks and hope your doing better
I am very surprised that you only have 160k subscribers Mike.
The content,the quality of video & the slick editing is worthy of many for subs.
I will continue to big you up here in the UK.
Thanks a I appreciate that
Great video Mike. Good to see Jerry back in the 850J. Always good to see Aaron. Thanks again for sharing.
Hey Mike, I know you had to do a hack of a lot to Bubba Dump but it sure is proving to be a good buy for you
The 200 seems like a real nice machine. Just by watching, it looks smooth and powerful
Thumbs up 👍 take out the trees 🌳 save the duck 🦆 🦆 🦆. EDIT: the ditch cleaning on this video, and placing the pipe with the taps ( gently ) in place. Going back a few videos picking up the big bolder. They are showing the capacity and dexterity of the Volvo.
That 200 is a pretty impressive machine even compared to the 210. It would be cool to see that thing with a thumb on it
Is this attempt number 2 ? Because I seem to remember a video, where a storm wiped out that crossover and pipe. Like I said in the comments of the other video, the Pipe needs to be on the "Upstream" side, not the Downstream side, and there needs to be 2 additional pipes in the event of any storms that produce excessive amounts of water, ie., floods.
A good operator can make any machine shine! Loved watching you put it through the paces!
24:09 WOW!!! VOLVO's new IN TEH AIR 360CAM IS PRETTY DANG COOL!!!!!! I LIKE THAT OPTION/FEATURE!!! LOL
You made a damn fine promo series for Volvo. And it looks like the machine is deserving.
Thanks
I've built alot of these Matt , you've got to put a control valve on the other side of the crossing So when it rains you can open the water flow more to prevent washing out the crossing.
We use electric valves but for this simple design you would have to come down and manually open the valve. But it's only for duck season so won't be alot of effort only when expecting bigger rains.
Fun to watch the Volvo EC200 work. She was really smooth and quick. I'll miss seeing her run.
Matt sure makes your channel fun to see
The 200 just needs a thumb and you would set . Love all the videos you have posted. Love Mat videos as well .the two of you make my day. Just cant get enough of the two of you. Take care and have fun and stay safe. Fro AZ. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
You seem to love that EC200. You seem to be floored by how well it operates with finesse and power. You look way more at home and comfortable. I’ve been waiting for you to tell us you are selling the Hyundai and putting a thumb on the EC200.
The 200 looked like a awesome machine mike the stand out for me was it’s speed and stability looked top notch when you were on the rock job 👍👍
Mat ingenious contraption looks like Popeyes pipe. I hope it works. Y’all stay safe. Good duckhunting.
I thought popeyes head outline and beard, from the first time I ever saw Mat side on. I wonder if you are to young to remember this TV cartoon character?
@@chrisharrell2449 I was 2 months ild when Kennedy was assonated! I remember many of the old cartoons
@Raymond Heckard I got see him [JFK] wave as the motorcade drove bye. As we all walked back to school which took (One and a half hour) we all heard the news. 🙏 🤧
more like Snoop Dogs PIPE ! LOL
Your a good friend letting Matt dam off a that ditch you just cleaned out if it doesn't blow off it's gonna create a sediment pond and silt your ditch up
That machine seems really smooth and easy to handle even at high swing speed. I like it.
Valvo 200 did well under your control, Mike !
They do make great machines, and a price tag to match the quality of their workmanship.
Fuel consumption does not appear to be out of the ordinary for the size of excavator, certainly agile enough to do a decent days work and then some !!
Thank you Volvo, have enjoyed watching DP putting this through its paces 👍💪😎
Fast and smooth.
also pretty quiet...
Nice machine.
What impressed me the most about the Volvo was the swing speed, but still having finesse.
Mike, the speed of the 200 is unreal! In saying that I believe that you will be able to get the 210 just as fast when you make the necessary adjustments?? The 200 is a fine machine but I think that you have a good bit more of strength and adjustability in your 210. DP, this is coming from a guy who has not been in one but just watch your videos!! As always I appreciate you bringing us along on these awesome adventures, thank you very much Mike!!!!
With some quick and easy math. My guess is that with approximately 3 ft of water above the bottom of the pipe, that fitting will receive around 470lb of force. It might just stay on there. I really want it to stay on there because I think this is a cool idea and I love to see people try new things. I'm team Matt on this one.
Always love seeing you and Matt's videos, Mike. Along with you, Matt (of Diesel Creek), Chris (let'sdig18), Wayne (of Ol2Stroker), Mike Chamberlain (Peterbilt Mike) and Mark (of TwinStick Garage) ... plus a host of others .... you guys have pretty much replaced my TV. The absolute decent, honest, real life you guys show us every day eclipses the rot of modern network TV. Plus, you guys appreciate your subscribers. Thanks for taking time to take us on a trip with you all as you go about your work.
This should work just fine. Water doesn’t really care what end the stand pipe is on. The good part is the beavers won’t be able to mess with it.
I think you should take a scrap couple sections of logs and put them across the ditch tight to the bottom of the stand pipe then backfill some dirt to keep it on the culvert.
I have seen this done before and it can work.
Why not just put it on the upstream side and avoid having to put logs and dirt in the way to keep it on the culvert?
@TheMxluver I thought, putting a 9-inch pipe a foot under the road would have made a good overflow pipe.
I gotta give Matt one thing, Perseverance and he has tons of it, I still think his Duck killing field will fail,that's a lot of water to hold back. I have been so surprised on the smoothness of the 200 your comments on the slight lack of power would explain why it is so smooth. Good on Volvo asking you to evaluate it knowing your not in the market for it. Keep up the good work Mike!! as long as you make content I will continue to watch.
Nice review of this Volvo. What I like is the almost silent moving of the tracks. The sound these tracks make is very "solid", so perfect aligned, no (what other machiens have) standard "from factory" play and corresponding noise.
And yes, a thumb would be handy on this machine also.
You looked as smooth as Tennessee Whiskey on that machine. Seemed like you two were a good fit.
Excellent equipment and knowledgeable operator makes difficult jobs look easy. Another Awesome Video
Great camera angles and drone footage! Thanks for putting that together!
Thanks
Great machine ! You put a "letsdig18" thumb on that ! Oh yeah !
That machine seems smooth and very fast, both in a good way. I think you would have appreciated a thumb, especially awhile back when you were slinging rocks and boulders.
I think you did an amazing job handling the big rocks without a thumb, takes some skill and patience picking those big rocks up and loading them! Excellent operating Mike! As always I enjoyed your videos Dirt Perfect Mike, thanks for sharing brother! Kirk from Louisiana, y’all stay safe,warm and healthy! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Thanks
The Volvo 200 is def a nice machine and, as you point out, very "quick". Just wish they'd have given you one with a Thumb to keep it Apples to Apples; sure would have sped things up on the Boat Dock Rock ... then again, showed off your true talents in "old school Operator" stuff.
If Matt took n cut the end outa that stack pipe , n found a cap that fits over the end he could put it on the up side of the path and be able to just pull the cap off when done for the season , next year just put the cap back on🤷🏼♂️ I love the Volvo w a thumb it would be bees knees👌🤘🤘🤘🤘
200 was awesome the way it handled the rock amazing. Of course the operator knows what he's doing does show his experience operating the machine as well. But I still like the 210 .
Amazing Mr DP and Mr Melinial great jobs and all the others that assist you.
Good idea, however, the standpipe needs to be upstream in the water though, NOT on the downstream end of the culvert pipe.
thats right its going wash the downstream side of the crossing bank as it bubbles up and over the end of the stand pipe.still a problem on the upstream side and it would need a spillway or outwash there or risk washing away the crossing.
Watching a lot of these excavator clips it looks like you and the 200 are a good combination, fast,precise and efficient.👍
It will work just fine. Best part is the pipe will be in a dry area when it comes time to remove it in winter.
I agree that it really should be on the upstream side. Doing so would even sort-of create its own spillway because the falling water will hit the inside of the pipe and lose velocity. I imagine the reason for putting it on the downstream side is that they don't have a control valve and they want to be able to remove it when duck season is over. By being on the downstream side, it won't be under water when they try to remove it.
If it were upstream, Matt would have no way to let the water out after duck season is over.
When I saw you at the rock pile without a thumb I thought you would be switching out machines. As you said it did a good job. I enjoyed watching you put it through its paces. Are you planning on finishing the ditch cleaning? As always great video.
Thanks
All the equipment you have run that I have seen you run, the operator that can conform to any machine at there disposal and can Dirt Perfect run it is a good operator. Well Done Mike 👍
Thanks
Hello from the Netherlands.
we have known for a while that the standpipe did not hold 🤣.
and if people would watch your podcast or the 2nd TH-cam channel of yours,
they already knew what you answered to the Volvo excavator because you said in the podcast video :
you like the Volvo and the Hyundai both the Volvo is a bit faster and the Hyundai consumes slightly less diesel.
thanks for for the video DP and Matt .
Sincerely Hollandduck
DP...You are much smoother with the 200! I think you should consider purchasing one, however you will need a thumb.
DP when you purchased bubba dump you made a good purchase. Hopefully the next video will be on Bubba Dump fuel tank and exhaust system?
The 200 seems like a nice machine.Super nice not having to put hours on your machines. Thank You for sharing.
Well the 200 helped make some great videos bro so it has that going for it. Safe travels
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Looking forward to seeing the results with the duck pond. Have to say the Volvo excavators certainly are easy on the eyes to watch work. Not sure if you could ever go wrong with buying one other than the bottom line. Was nice to see it in action, thanks to Volvo for sharing it with you and your viewers. Wishing you, your family and crew the best.
Oh yeah drone footage🎉🎉🎉🎉💯💯💯💯🎉🎉🎉🎉 just made my day
It so much more dimensional
Thanks
Ok guys that one huge bowl ! Ducken it thou!
That new Volvo loaner digger was nice. It would have been better with a thumb imo. Still a kick in the pants to watch you work with it. Great video. Thank you DP. 👍
Wouldn't be one bit surprised NYA Millennial's idea works - he seems to love the idea of duck 'shooting'. Volvo will appreciate the fact that they know you will give an honest appraisal which gives them the opportunity to make improvements to the operation of the machines. Bubba Dump about ready for a makeover.
Volvo just wanted to put the 200 out because Mike kept saying how much better the 210 was over the 140. Though he said the same thing when he operated Chris' 250
Great video this was very enjoyable to watch thanks Mike and Matt
I remember the Instagram story, I know how this is going to end, not well for Matt. Better luck next time Matt.
Win, lose or draw on the ditch pipe or fuel in the truck I LOVE the banter between you guys 👍😄
Really enjoyed the drone footage of him taking Bubba Dump down the edge of the field. Good shot. Thank you.
To bad you can't keep it! Sure did a, (better then) I thought it could do job. Very impressed!!
Mike you clearly like the Volvo the best. The speed of the swing, smoothness of the hydraulics is evident that it is the machine for you.
I am an old 400 450 excavator operator. Seems slow in loading largehaul trucks butthe advantage to loading small trucks is in the weather condiitions you experience . looks like a mean clean machine for your application. Thumbs Up!
The volvo 200 220 are fantastic machine so if you are thinking about getting one then go for it it has been a great machine on your channel 👍 👍
DP I really like how you can jump between machines on the 200 with no thumb and it didn't bother you one bit and I believe the 200 is a quick machine swinging dirt and when you back fill while moving IS cool
Delivering dirt equipment for rental companies I’ve been fortunate to have watched some very good track hoe operators and you are by far one of the smoothest. I was surprised how well you loaded the ditch cleanings with out a thumb. With that being said I’m certain that you will perform well in whatever piece of equipment you decide to buy. You keep making these and I’ll keep watching them! Peace!
Thanks appreciate that
I've done a lot of work with backhoes and you are a awesome backhoe operator you make it look extremely easy
Thanks
When you first showed that standpipe it reminded me of the cap from a giant still . With only 51 hours on the clock the engine in the Volvo hasn't even started to break in yet . That fuel consumption will improve with time .
Good morning sunshine! Another great video! I do love the drone view! Yall start my day off right with me laughing at how yall kid around with each other! Much love from Henderson Ga
The 200 is a sweet machine, seems to be smooth, agile, well powered, capable of handling a lot of those projects you had it on quite well, but those are opinions from an arm chair, you are the one in the operators seat. If I were to purchase it, it would have a thumb for sure. Thanks for the ride along sir.
🇮🇪☘️🇺🇸Our beautiful state of NC , you’re calmer and you can see it in how you move and hear it in your voice, you’re enjoying your work again I think. Loved your interview with DP was quite informative just 2 hard working guys talking about life trying to go day to day in reality. That Boyo is what makes you, him ,18 & Diesel my choices. No BS why as u said so much work comes from viewers! Blessings upon you and yours!!
From ditch muck to topsoil. Great work.
When I was in a machine, I found the volvo was far smoother than the others, but I do agree it had less brute strength.
Great video DP. I thought the 200 did great, although it would've been nice to see a thumb on it. Would've been handy with that boat dock. Other than that, it's a good machine.
I always have fuel filter issues after I run one out of fuel. That’s usually an accident as ya case. I see some good spots in the drone footage along the tree line for dry dams and tile. Of course thats when time and money allows. All the improvements cost money and quite a bit usually upfront.
Good morning all have a great day!!😀😀😀 Quack Quack NYAM hahahah love it guys such a hoot
The thrust load on the end of that TEE will be the height of the water from the center of the pipe to the top in feet multiplied by 2 psi/ ft of height multiplied by the area of the end of the TEE in sq inches...
it was nice to hear the truck sounds in the drone shots 👍👍👏👏
Very impressive machine All that needs is a thumb in a brand new dirt perfect sticker on it and we will call it perfect perfect
Hasn't rained more than 5" inches in 100 years, 😂🤣😂 Can't wait until it snows and that thaws and then of course there's the soil erosion around Matt's flat end. I'm with you Mike, waiting for another failure film to come through. At this stage it would have been better to leave the Beaver dams in. 🤗 As for the 200, I think it definitely needs a thumb and it's a little bit on the light side when it comes to lifting. Your 210 relatively, isn't much bigger, but boy it's lifting power is nearly equal to a 220. I would expect a 200 to be not far of a 210 when it comes to lifting loads. Just my thoughts though and I only a viewer not an operator.
Commenting before the end: The only thing I kind of noticed is that it seems as loud as the 120, but seems that it can do the job of the 210! Its just your preference!
The best thing about the volvo 200 is its quietness when you operate it you are able to talk not your usual shouting to be heard
Put two earth anchors in the wall (one on each side) and tight upp the stand pipe against the horizontal one with those , the pipe may wander of despite screws due to water pressure and this the may also cause damage to the seals if they "rip out " with the stand pipe , if this happens you may not be able to get the connection water tight again.
Great video Mike, Volvo definitely builds excellent equipment. Thanks again.
Great clean up, much needed, got to do service the land just like the equipment 😉 Time for a bath 🛀 😂👍🇺🇸
Obviously the Captain has not been around, the Pringles are still in the truck. :) Thank you Volvo. Thank you and have a good day.
Great series of videos on the Volvo loaner
Good job Mike. It will be much better now. Have a great day.
The 200 looks very smooth and quick on camera compared to the 210.
Going to have to see the video if that pipe works or not. I think you should get the machine, providing you have use for it and finances allow you to.
Now you have a Millennial beaver. LoL God bless
Thanks for the ride along on the Volvo 200. 👍
I think you gave the Volvo a fair shake within your given timeframe. You stated it didn't quite have the oomph for its size. Was that in comparison to the 210? Could you see a 'need' in the future where having two 200 series machines in the fleet makes sense?
My thought is if you hadn’t already bought the 210, I could see you buying the 200 (with a thumb). The speed and creature comforts are the big pluses. I am assuming the price is similar.
Someone has got damn quick running that 200!
Nice machine, the speed really shows in the videos. As an operator you know best what is the nicest, and also the speed vs strenght is basicly what you need. Reliability is also a point, cannot test that in 20 hours and the service is very important, a machine costs the most when it is not working.
👍👍👍💙💛❤Un canal de drenaj bine conturat. Iar imaginile cu drona sunt intotdeauna fabuloase ,pentru ca iti da o perspectiva mai ampla si mai precisa. MIKE , MATT PERFECT 👍👍👍
Matt needs one of those giant rocks that you used at the river to hold that fitting on. Funny video.
This would be the ideal place for a water control structure that made to control the water level for ponds. Agri drain makes them but u can make ur own for less money. The water level come in at the same level of ur outlet pipe. It have removable boards to to put inside the box to control the height of the water.
The machine I’m in full time is a 2016 Volvo ECR 145 CL can’t fault it only thing we have had to do is a water pump and new chains and sprockets has 8500hrs still as tight as it was new love my Volvo excavators
You should buy that 200. Wow what a nice machine, however get the grading and thumb options.
Now the question is how is Matt going to get it off? LoL God bless
Nice unit" Just a thumb, grading bucket, And your golden....(:
Mike, I think that Volvo is the fastest, smoothest and gets more work done in the same amount of time than any machine that I have seen you operate. I don't know about the cost per hour, including deprecation would be compared to others but it looks a machine that fits your needs better than any of the others.
My thoughts on the 200... add it to the fleet and get a thumb attachment to it. 👍
