hey nick, I felt J.M. Wood had the edge when it came to getting solid prices and just making the whole process smoother. They seem to attract a pretty serious buyer crowd, which helped my trucks move quicker at fair value. J.J. Kane wasn’t bad at all, but I noticed their fees and the...

I've seen more crews testing out electric lately, and the biggest wins seem to be lower maintenance and quiet operation. But if your jobs run long hours or in remote spots, gas still feels safer unless you've got solid charging access.

I've seen a lot of builders leaning on bridge loans this year too-seems like a smart way to keep projects moving fast.

great picks.. id also throw in Toolbox Talks for quick safety refreshers and Cat Inspect if you're using CAT equipment it makes inspections way faster and more organized on-site

having everything in one place really helps avoid the chaos weve been testing out Contractor Foreman lately and it’s been super handy for keeping projects on track without drowning in paperwork

Same here... 3D modeling has made our pre-construction meetings way smoother. Everyone actually gets the plan now before we break ground

yeah, once we started using software with real-time tracking and maintenance alerts, downtime dropped and fuel savings added up fast

Have you found one? if not you can try reaching out directly to local rental fleets.. sometimes they’re offloading machines like that at pretty fair prices

Hey all, thinking about upgrading to a 4WD telehandler. Is it really worth it over 2WD for most job sites? Would love your thoughts...

yeah, probably a mix. I bet diesel is still hanging on in the roughest spots, even with shiny new tech rolling out.
