I agree,
The 100 is likely pounds so 100K, that was my guess on weight, still a 9-10 axle move. It looks to be easily in the 90-100K weight range.

A friend of mine has a smaller Xtreme zoom boom on his job site. Brand new machine, good for 20T. The thing is nicely built, ergonomic, has joy sticks for everything and the whole works is on beam axles with hydraulic tilt.
Buddy said it was a $180k machine. That 100T is probably north of 3/4M.

It appears that there are a few of y'all that should maybe consider some night classes to brush up on your basic math skills a bit...

I seen a YouTube video of some guy walking around asking prices of equipment, he said they told him 2 million for it. I find that a little much he might of been FOS Don’t know.
But it was bad ass, it has a Cummins x15 powering it and the tracks fold in for transport.

Once you were pushing it uphill to hire a 50 ton crane here ......now there are any number of 200 and 250 ton mobiles getting around.....have to be more than $2M US each as they are German mostly.

If that is the case, then it should have been written as "tonne".

Tracks will probably give it more stability, no sidewall deflection like a tire; and probably lower ground pressure due to large footprint.
Lot of tracks showing up on the largest farm tractors and combines.

I have never opperated a tracked, well, I'm not sure that I have ever ran anything tracked... ???
But open field is all one thing, but if you are dooing much finessing to git into a spot, or hooked up to this or that all that often, I would think that would wear those tracks and infrastructures out quickly. If you need it - you need it, but I would want to make sure that I needed it, rather than git one to keep up with the Jones's.
