Hi dudes! I have been reading this site for two weeks now. Finally I decided to join you. Really digging this place. In U.S. everything seems to be big... I mostly drive 2003 MB Actros Putz 36M. Really loving it! I uploaded some workpics in my profile. I apologize bad quality pictures (or better blame Nokia:)).

ruck: It can get as low as -30 celsius at winter. I have never worked such cold, but my friend has done it few times. Well only line pours, but anyway needed to be extra careful, as concrete freezes really quickly in those temps. We dont use booms if it gets below -16 celsius. Temperature varies a lot during year (summers +30 to winters -30 celsius)

We are doing fine. All our 5 pumps work 5 days a week. Worlds bad economical situation doesn't have effect here, at least not yet. I have heard though that in Finland few companies have machines sitting in yard.
