My understating was that the dodges were only making a third of what the rest of the crews were making from discovery and they would not pay for any of the exspensives as they do for Parker or todd

sounds like the haufman crew and Parker. crew are doing 22 grand per episode ... Not bad
Dodges or hurts?

I would imagine they would need all of that 22 grand for the time they waste dicking around for drama. Using swing set chains to pull out equipment a prime example.

I agree a lot of people seem to knock him but he had no experience. How many people with no experience could do better? He does a few silly things I'm like why are you doing it like that lol. But i actually want him to do well and show the haters he can do it.

he certainly isn't afraid of risk which makes him a better man than most. But we need someone to beat up on. Why not the fat kid? Lol

So what do you guys think of Todd's offer to dave? I think dave is crazy for going for it I hope it pays off for dave. If not it's not a good situation to be in. But he got $500,000 worth of equipment wow crazy guy.

Seeing as Daves background is in equipment operating and material/plant operations (I belive the family runs a crushing opperation in Oregon) in combination with all the exploration maps Dave should do alright. If he can keep Todd in the office shack he will do great.

Dave seems to be the earth moving brains of the operation. I am sure he will get the crew organized and have a viable plan of attack.
He definately gets the respect and loyalty of his crew/team members.

On another note, nice to see Tony wearing a safety harness.
Just winging it attitude with a crane is pretty sketchy!
But like Tony says, "Get with the Program!" God I love that line.

Ya I noticed that he took a new truck to see Dave. Dave was too in a new ford
Not much attention on the dodge boys. - to busy getting big pieces of gold to worry about making drama for tv

Hmmm can't judge it in real world terms! Great show but Volvo throws a ton of $$$ into it, Ford and dodge might too....Volvo so much so they have too cover up the names on the other excavators....lol
My brother goldmines up there too, they all laugh at the drama.....the only thing he says about it is. " it's easy if some one is sponsoring the equipment"....lol
