“This 1150M is the first piece of equipment that we've bought with machine control,” says Metts. “We were at a point we couldn't compete without [it]. Now we're competitive with anyone else in the area for moving dirt. If we go to a small project, it cuts down a lot of time, nearly eliminating re-work. We aren't moving dirt several times. We can cut it one time and be finished with an area on the project. That was really the big selling point.”
