Hey everyone, with 5G rolling out across more sites, I’m curious how folks think it will change equipment connectivity in real-world construction. Will faster data speeds actually improve machine performance and fleet management, or is it more hype than reality? Anyone here already seeing 5G...

Interesting question! When I first got behind a backhoe, I was about 16 and it was just on private land helping out family. No formal license or anything back then, just learning the basics. Curious how others here got their start, was it similar or more official?

I’ve had decent results with both, but I’d agree Ritchie Bros. tends to edge it out for sellers. The buyer reach is hard to beat and the process feels more streamlined. That said, IronPlanet can still work well for certain equipment, especially if you’re not in a rush and want a more fixed-price...

Buying heavy equipment can be tricky, one wrong move and you're out thousands. I had a near miss with a used backhoe where the paperwork was sketchy and the seller wanted cash only. How do you guys avoid scams and make sure the deal is solid? Thanks
