It is a pity CM1995, If our HEF fans can hang out together, talking about Equipment things all around the world, that would be great!

Thanks Hitch, I'm bummed about not being there as well.:(

But our members that are attending should try and have a meet and greet. We did that last Conex and it was a fun time, met several good folks that have become good friends.:)

Fortunately there will be another!:drinkup

My JD salesman says the new K series hoes will get unveiled.I'd love to go but I can't as I have to go to my cousin's wedding in Phoenix April 9.Flying has become too damn expensive.If anybody gets over to the new Encore,say hello to my son--he's at the concierge dep't.

I hadn't planned on attending the "Fleet Equipment Strategies--Repair Vs. Replace Vs. Rebuild Vs. Scrap" session, but there is a great educational session on emissions regulations you may want to check out. I've read a few things about the regulations so far and it could be a really big help for folks. Check out this link and it will tell ya exactly what they are planning to cover and see if it may help you out. http://blog.machinefinder.com/3621/education-sessions-conexpo

Have any of you heard about John Deere unveiling something? Evidently it's supposed to be something revolutionary, heck idk. My brother sent me this story about it earlier today and he doesn't know much about machinery and isn't that big into it at all so that tells me something. it seems pretty interesting to me. here is a link to the story

If folks in HEF can meet and have a time talking to know each other, that would be great!!!!!! I'm looking forward to this happen.

Is there a coordinator or contact of our HEF fans person in the Conexpo site? Hope I can conect this guy.:)

More on the innovation from JD.I still feel this is a hybrid unit.The concept is about the same as the Cat D7E.
This is a tractor loader backhoe.The middle covered unit is a full production model that is or is very close to what will be available to the public.The other two are the same but one is a stripped down with out cab,loader,backhoe of the main unit.The other covered unit will be a cutaway of the main covered unit.
So much for this.I might be 100% wrong I guess we well have to see Cheers Jim

Whatever Deere is set to reveal, they are making it out to be something quite revolutionary. Check out this post from one of their blogs. I can't make it down there at that time, but this article says that you can watch it live on their website. hopefully all of that works out with no bugs! anyway, here is the link to that article if you're interested. http://blog.machinefinder.com/3786/conexpo-deere-to-unveil

You can watch it live. It unveils in about an hour.
