Just got back from a job site in South Carolina

Everyone raves about Liebherr crawlers for rough terrain but I'll take my old Manitowoc any day. The new hydraulic systems are too finicky for actual mud work, anyone else prefer the simpler setups?

Spent years swearing by the newer stuff, figured the hydraulics were just an upgrade. Then I got stuck on a job in Georgia, had to wait four hours for a software reset on a newer machine. Old Manitowoc would have shrugged it off and kept digging. Changed my whole view on what "reliable" actually means.

Felt that @grace_hunt84. Older stuff just works.
