Based on feedback from customers we work with, the Volvo 300 generally feels quicker, stronger and smoother in combined movement when both machines are in similar condition.<\/p>\n<p>However, inquiry levels for EC290 and Volvo 300 are fairly close. With the same budget, I would often choose a better-condition EC290BLC over an average Volvo 300.<\/p>\n<p>EC290 has a relatively simpler electrical layout, but age can bring more wiring faults. Both models need clean fuel and local fuel-system support. For long-term mining, I would compare Volvo EC380 or CAT 336 instead.<\/p>\n<style id=\"wpforms-css-vars-149\">\n\t\t\t\t#wpforms-149 {\n\t\t\t\t--wpforms-field-size-input-height: 43px;\n--wpforms-field-size-input-spacing: 15px;\n--wpforms-field-size-font-size: 16px;\n--wpforms-field-size-line-height: 19px;\n--wpforms-field-size-padding-h: 14px;\n--wpforms-field-size-checkbox-size: 16px;\n--wpforms-field-size-sublabel-spacing: 5px;\n--wpforms-field-size-icon-size: 1;\n--wpforms-label-size-font-size: 16px;\n--wpforms-label-size-line-height: 19px;\n--wpforms-label-size-sublabel-font-size: 14px;\n--wpforms-label-size-sublabel-line-height: 17px;\n--wpforms-button-size-font-size: 17px;\n--wpforms-button-size-height: 41px;\n--wpforms-button-size-padding-h: 15px;\n--wpforms-button-size-margin-top: 10px;\n--wpforms-container-shadow-size-box-shadow: none;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t<\/style><div class=\"wpforms-container wpforms-container-full wpforms-render-modern\" id=\"wpforms-149\"><form id=\"wpforms-form-149\" class=\"wpforms-validate wpforms-form wpforms-ajax-form\" data-formid=\"149\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart\/form-data\" action=\"\/tr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4802\" data-token=\"a6a3652e294360b1fba0b3eb84c94370\" data-token-time=\"1794459665\"><div class=\"wpforms-head-container\"><div class=\"wpforms-title\">Contact Us Page Form<\/div><\/div><noscript class=\"wpforms-error-noscript\">Bu formu bitirebilmek i\u00e7in taray\u0131c\u0131n\u0131zda JavaScript&#039;i etkinle\u015ftirin.<\/noscript><div id=\"wpforms-error-noscript\" style=\"display: none;\">Bu formu bitirebilmek i\u00e7in taray\u0131c\u0131n\u0131zda JavaScript&#039;i etkinle\u015ftirin.<\/div><div class=\"wpforms-field-container\"><div id=\"wpforms-149-field_1-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-name\" data-field-id=\"1\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label wpforms-label-hide\" for=\"wpforms-149-field_1\" aria-hidden=\"false\">Name <span class=\"wpforms-required-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">*<\/span><\/label><input type=\"text\" id=\"wpforms-149-field_1\" class=\"wpforms-field-large wpforms-field-required\" name=\"wpforms[fields][1]\" placeholder=\"Name\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-149-field_1-error\" required><\/div>\t\t<div id=\"wpforms-149-field_4-container\"\n\t\t\tclass=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-text\"\n\t\t\tdata-field-type=\"text\"\n\t\t\tdata-field-id=\"4\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t<label class=\"wpforms-field-label\" for=\"wpforms-149-field_4\" >Email WhatsApp\/Phone* Name<\/label>\n\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" id=\"wpforms-149-field_4\" class=\"wpforms-field-medium\" name=\"wpforms[fields][4]\" >\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"wpforms-149-field_6-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-phone\" data-field-id=\"6\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label wpforms-label-hide\" for=\"wpforms-149-field_6\" aria-hidden=\"false\">WhatsApp\/Phone* <span class=\"wpforms-required-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">*<\/span><\/label><input type=\"tel\" id=\"wpforms-149-field_6\" class=\"wpforms-field-large wpforms-field-required wpforms-smart-phone-field\" data-rule-smart-phone-field=\"true\" name=\"wpforms[fields][6]\" placeholder=\"WhatsApp\/Phone*\" aria-label=\"WhatsApp\/Phone*\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-149-field_6-error\" required><\/div><div id=\"wpforms-149-field_2-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-email\" data-field-id=\"2\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label wpforms-label-hide\" for=\"wpforms-149-field_2\" aria-hidden=\"false\">Email<\/label><input type=\"email\" id=\"wpforms-149-field_2\" class=\"wpforms-field-large\" name=\"wpforms[fields][2]\" placeholder=\"Email*\" spellcheck=\"false\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-149-field_2-error\" ><\/div><div id=\"wpforms-149-field_3-container\" class=\"wpforms-field wpforms-field-textarea\" data-field-id=\"3\"><label class=\"wpforms-field-label wpforms-label-hide\" for=\"wpforms-149-field_3\" aria-hidden=\"false\">Message <span class=\"wpforms-required-label\" aria-hidden=\"true\">*<\/span><\/label><textarea id=\"wpforms-149-field_3\" class=\"wpforms-field-large wpforms-field-required\" name=\"wpforms[fields][3]\" placeholder=\"Please tell us which product you\u2019d like to find out about\" aria-errormessage=\"wpforms-149-field_3-error\" required><\/textarea><\/div><script>\n\t\t\t\t( function() {\n\t\t\t\t\tconst style = document.createElement( 'style' );\n\t\t\t\t\tstyle.appendChild( document.createTextNode( '#wpforms-149-field_4-container { position: absolute !important;
