Sliding friction on an aluminum tray causes black fine dust that covers items that you have in there. You'll be needing a liner or a rubber mat for the tray.

Failed to mention the first, most crucial “must have” $$$$$$

Yep, jealous of your purchases. New podcast title - "Buying $hit with the Morgans". I loved this channel in early days when I could relate to all of the rural outdoor tractor etc related projects. Fortunately if I need a Morgan fix, I can go watch the old episodes. Don't watch it much anymore, except I do enjoy your trips to West Virginia. Cheers!

Like that rear window protection.

Great video my friend.. very informative and interesting

It would be a helpful bit of information to know price ranges for their different sized machines. Comparable to track loaders? Thanks Mike.

Ya gotta get one Mike!

how prince RS?

Pretty nice machine. Definitely see the use in municipality situation's. Ill be watching

Looks like you could use a hydrolic dump trailer. You could make money with it use it in your log yard rent it out 250.00 per day plenty of used for it. I like this price of equipment you have been testing out as long as it can replace other pieces of equipment and you could sell some others. Thanks for the post love watching this channel

You finally got a machine with a 4 in 1 bucket

Немцы красавцы! Обожаю эту нацию! Это гениальные люди как и японцы! Спасибо им всех за их изобретения

Mrs Morgan has a fine rear end

Definitely be a good alternative for very difficult small pours, possibly not all of the time,

I would've *burned* the piece of wood out!! j.k. Mikey!!

your the man mike !!

$55,000! I'll bid the job now since the truck won't reach. $100,000 minimum! Good lord! No foundations at that rate, so one hell of a curb/ sidewalk pour! I have to come back and watch this later. Life is pricing me out of existence!

When I was a young man I had lots of seat time in the big Cat wheel loaders. I noticed that the AVANT is like the old Huff loaders of my day. On the Cat the operator rode with the engine. On the Huff you rode with the bucket. After years of riding with the engine getting on one that you rode with the bucket, made for some very awkward things to happen.

Tie ropes to the hose to make it easier to move it.

Just found your channel, love all the things you guys are involved with. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos. Troy from Carefree AZ.

I live in Hamilton Ontario, I haven’t seen any green machines yet

Realistically either qualify for medicaid or live out of the country. Many parts of Latin America you can easily do off grid for $2 grand a year.

Nice machine.

Well that is awesome that a factory rep came out and talked about the machine. I was wondering about an adapter plate especially for someone like yourself Mike with all the attachments you have

finding a way to put some handles on that concrete hose would do wonders for how much effort it takes to run that pumper. Even just some creative use of ratchet straps to form some rudimentary handles at strategic points would be a night and day difference versus how the crew was doing it in that test application.

NICE!! 👍

the avant ? use momentarily all wheel drive when scooping from pile on fill dirt or gravel should help

Very interesting video thanks for keeping us updated on new equipment

Hi Mike just get a graco airless variable sprayer 12 inch swath no roller required

Very knowledgable guy this was very interesting to listen to👍

Hey Mike how about hooking the concrete hose to the Avant somehow and running it. Be a big back saver! Just thinking outside the box?

I'm sure you know this Mike but for the other fans out there remember with this type of machine remember the lift capacity is dependent on the counter weight on the rear. So you lose weight capacity when you turn and you can roll over on a sharp turn with a heavy load, especially if you have it lift high.

Wow, talk about being informed. That fellow knows Avant machines inside & out in his sleep. Hes definitely the right one to be touring and answering questions or reaching new owners how to use them. The only thing I didn't hear is the pride of a well optioned largest model like you rented there.I can't imagine the word cheap or inexpensive would explain the price. What an addition to your arsenal of machines, though. I seen the black stripes on the sides so tell them you want orange stripes on the side to match the rest of the machines you have.

What truck? Sorry, beautiful wife had my attention. Lol

Excellent mike 😊

Only one thing I can see wrong with the Avant…it’s not orange! 😂

I think a lot of people in the comments don't realize how tough and knotty Australian wood is. Most push through firewood processors are too weak, and in my experience, a basic single blade splitter is faster, compared to the amount of times it gets jammed (talking about Australian hardwood). Australians mostly burn hardwood. I use to operate the smaller Rex 600.

Very informative!

You have all the good toys. I like it. Need it!

I like the skid loader much better! Skid loaders are excellent for leveling land! I would have both!

Could you shiplap the pine for the interior walls?

Hi Mike, I will have to watch Tom's video to see how he likes that concrete pumper. Mark is definitely knowledgeable about this product and attachments, seems like a solid machine.

Awesome Video!! Thank You!! Keep Smiling On!!😅👍👊❤️

very informative video pretty cool dude and that machine is pretty slick

Very good video thanks for stopping by,my brother has run these where he works and keeps saying this thing has over 200 attachments, unbelievable and they love it

You cut that guy off when he was talking about a dozen times, why was that. Sometimes people's ego's get the best of them.

The guy from Avant needs a public speaking class to stop saying “um” “um” “um” “um” “um” “um”.

Good evening everyone.

Concrete looked too thick.

Like the fact they have mirrors vs my L28
