Congrats on the sale. Looks like the buyer got a good truck at a good price.

Selling the Tak? Downsizing, re-organizing, upgrading or closing the business down?

For old age and health reasons, slowly closing down. I don't need to make money out of the business to live, so doing a few jobs a year gives me some "play" money for my fishing boat, "tool" collection, bikes etc. Still have the TB240, TB016 mini excavator, Toro Dingo, Mikasa roller and compactors, and a lot of other equipment. Once my bigger excavator goes, I will sell the Trailmax 10 ton electric brake trailer.

Did @Coaldust buy it for hauling bulk rabbit food?

Big trucks is what I know. HAZMAT is what I tow.
That took awhile to sell. Glad you found a buyer. Sounds like a decent deal for both parties. I’ll keep an eye out for it.

Despite the overall economy being flat, on paper, companies are buying a good amount of equipment in Q1 26. Lots of speculation waiting for the big projects to start.

I was just referring to my little part of the planet. I should have been more clear.
I have no clue what’s happening in the real world.
I was just referring in general, I don't think that the world is different down here than up there,
except the fact it's more specialized there for operating conditions/seasons/specifications.
