Maybe not quite as exciting as my Plane or the Newport Sceanic Railroad Locomotive but OK.

For sure: the SUV - what else?

Bobcat = Skid Steer
Backhoe
Train (sure can't do that in the us)
I hate cars
bikes use to much human power
legs are worthless

A|A, most of the time, be it on a train, ferry, no longer planes unfortunately, but if you ask the driver, most the time they will let you come into the cabin or what-have-you, and show you what it's all about!

I am not sure how easy things are in USA anymore due to terrorism etc..

Only been on a train once... Everything else belongs to someone I know that let me drive it.

In an old topic you posted a pic of you "working" in a excavator - so why is this so special

Agent|Austin · « **Reply #12 on:** August 15, 2008, 19:07:39 »

Because this isn't my normal machine.

I am usually on a machine that is 5 tons bigger, plus this was newer, and didn't have busted out glass. And I have never driven a loader that big before.

NathanC · « **Reply #13 on:** August 15, 2008, 19:11:18 »

I had a go in a JCB a few years ago - tiny, nowhere near that

Agent|Austin · « **Reply #14 on:** August 15, 2008, 19:14:22 »

JCB, telehandler? or JCB what? :p

JCB makes allot of different machines.

But my usual machine is 20.3 tons with the thumb and long undercarriage (CL)

)

Jayshum · « **Reply #22 on:** August 17, 2008, 04:34:02 »

That's what I did. The only time he actually told me to do something that wasn't like "Now you don't know the route so just drop down to N2." was when I missed a wistle post. $:-\$
