It’s bad here too, lots of layoffs here in Caterpillar country. So far it hasn’t directly affected me, I’m somewhat insulated because I’m like the boy scouts “be prepared”.

It doesn’t look better for Cat for some time.

A good friend of mine has a lowbed service and hauls construction equipment in the western US and in the last 6 months he’s been lucky to get 3 jobs a week when he usually did 3-4/day.
