Mike gives a full reveal of the Powston PE65, the 6.5 ton excavator he ordered, with a closer look than his first quick video. (This was filmed at the Powston factory and posted afterward.)

FEATURES HE POINTS OUT

- A backup camera mounted high, hydraulic and engine compartments, and a step layout for climbing in.

- Large front tie-down points, which Mike requested before the machine was built because he and many customers use 5/8 inch chain to secure equipment.

- A fully insulated, lined cab, including the door and upper areas, and lift hooks if the cab ever needs to be removed.

- Large-cell batteries, an offset boom for good visibility, and a loud low-fuel alarm.

Mike compares some differences between Powston and Rippa machines and says the PE65 is a higher-quality machine for the price. Full specifications are on the website, and you can reach us at RippaUSASales.com with questions.

Mike lines up the first three Powston excavators at the factory and compares the 6.5 ton PE65 and the 8 ton PE80, with more on the way.

WHAT HE HIGHLIGHTS

- A new look: the machines are painted in two grays, after weeks of choosing the lighter and darker shades, and the design has rounded, curved lines.

- Parts support: the machines ship with their parts. Mike says you shouldn't have to deal with missing parts, and parts arrive in the same shipping containers as the machines.

- Planning: the project started around the third week of June, with design and color decisions taking about three weeks.

Mike says he needs to sell these machines to pay for what is coming behind them.
