[QUOTE="C2tuck, post: 16913614, member: 195303"] The general public has no clue. We assist in doing maintenance work on these things constantly. I have a 700t crane that had literally billed every day for the last 2.5 years except for 11 days. Cranes don’t like wind, and being on a wind farm, we get a lot of wind out days where we get paid just for being there. We’ve had jobs last months changing out a hub bearing or yaw bearing. These jobs should take 3 days. They spend millions of dollars on repairs, none of which are anything near green. Just my crane takes 18 semi loads to get in and 18 to get out. That’s not counting all of their trucks and parts trucks. It’s a shitshow. The wind side is so good, we’re buying another $4mm crane this year that is the big sister of the one we’ve got. This one has a Derrick and tray and will be a legit 1000t crane.
