Anthony Durante, CEO, Durante Rentals, Mount Vernon, N.Y., says attachments have helped increase the utilization of his company’s equipment as well.

While the equipment-shopping episode two seasons ago was indeed the group’s first visit to the dealership, they had, in fact, been in touch with Ferguson for a month. Between the initial contact and the brothers’ visit to the dealership, Toromont sales executives weighed the possible transaction and arrived at a reasonable balance between rental income and free publicity. “They rented the equipment from us at a favorable rate,” Ferguson acknowledged, “because we knew we also would gain exposure from being on the show.”

“Overall, I’d rate its digging performance as excellent. The pilot controls on this machine are very smooth and responsive, but have a bit of a different touch, compared with electro-hydraulic controls. It’s just a matter of initially adapting to the individual system when you first use the machine.”

“The mobile app provides irrigation managers with a number of useful options,” says Doran. “Users can lock controllers with a passcode, save, view, clear and restore up to three irrigation programs, each of which can have up to eight start times per day. Monthly seasonal adjust of 0-300 percent alleviates the need to re-visit sites throughout the year to make program changes. Users can also save and restore a TBOS backup program, or save a program as a contractor default, allowing them to easily replicate programs across multiple controllers. And, the TBOS-BT retains its irrigation programs in memory even when its battery is removed and replaced.”

At the end of their visit, the island group signed up for delivery of the 40-ton 336E excavator, a D5K dozer, and a 420F backhoe. The investment was the beginning of a parade of Caterpillar machinery onto the island. In subsequent seasons of the show, the dealership has provided a model 323 excavator, an 18-ton D6N dozer, a 200-hp, nine-ton 950 wheel loader and a 13-ton CS56 vibratory compactor, as well as auxiliary equipment, like generators.

“That idiot Halberstam didn’t put my father in there,” Povich said. “Which I always reminded him about.”

Information integration and sharing are making great strides, according to Andrew Kahler, product marketing manager, John Deere WorkSight. JDLink (Deere) and ZXLink (Hitachi) run on a 4G LTE cellular network. The current system has more memory and more power and has both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to enable communication with multiple devices and platforms. Because there has been no standard communication protocol for telematics data, custome

You can get better utilization of available space by employing specially designed storage pallets and racks for small- to medium-sized rental equipment.

Roy plunges into a third rewrite, this time staying as close as possible to the bare facts. What, where, when, how, and a minimum of why. But there’s nothing more guaranteed to whip the entire Farm into a frenzy than a stark recitation of a sequence of events that makes it way too obvious who fired the first shot, and the last. One bot shrieks that the “bRane-deDd MeedIa” is out to lunch—when going to lunch is all Roy wants to do.

Steve Mau, president, Brainerd General Rental, Brainerd, Minn., says the old adage is that attachments rent machines.

“It all comes down to material type as to what type of GET you use,” says Neal. “Whether it’s bucket teeth or extra guarding to protect the life of the bucket, there is a fine balance between longevity of the bucket and overall productivity. The heavier the bucket, the less payload the machine will be able to achieve.”

She’s already notched one win. Teachout has been pushing since the start of her campaign for Cuomo to provide the attorney general’s office a criminal referral, necessary if Underwood is going to pursue charges in the foundation case. Last month, the governor did, a move that that has largely been credited to Teachout’s advocacy—but that Teachout says is still too limited.
