Picked up a ton 170.00, never been at a breaker like that,it was so cool,however I was a little worried about the huge front end loader, but the guy was a expert and loaded it fine. As for the coal it seemed a little dull but to my surprise it burned just fine in the Harmon, little more white ash than the load from Montrose, happen to work up their,1/2 ton 138.00 way pricey. Never again good coal but expensive.

Why you worried about a loader that can fit your truck in it's bucket?

If it's still the same guy he's been running those loaders around that yard for about 20 years if not more.

The hoppers are only open in the warmer weather.

You would think they would have something a little more manageable for loading, not questioning this guys ability, but for cost effectiveness, it's got to suck a lot of diesel.

They make a lot of coal and most of it is going into trailers, tri-axles and coal trucks. In the summer when they have them open he only has to fill hoppers for the coal trucks and small trucks.
