    Out of curiosity, what can you expect the production rate to be per shift, in yds3, in that beast. Assuming the trucks can keep pace with you of course....

    Amazing! I didn't think Twin Mtn was still operating. Who are the General Supt and Project Managers. I worked for TM back in 95, in Santa Fe.

    Nice Ex :usa What i would give for a new 385, although im runninga very nice 375 with a 9cy so i know about the too big issue. Cant heap it like i would like but you get a feel for what your hoe will handle. Once you get the hang of it you'll never want to go back. I know, they threw a 4.5 yrd on while they resurface and rebuilding the 9yrder and its quite faster but it gets frustrating when you go from putting out truck's in 3 buckets to 5 or 6 buckets. Anyways congrats on the 385 keep the pictures coming.:usa
