Morbark 15 vs Bandit 1070

[lawmart]

Well heres my delma I have 30k can.(25Kus) Iam looking at a morbark model 15 with 1500hrs, 150hp, 2005 yr. Or a brand new bandit 1070 with a kabota 86hp . wtih all the warenty etc.
Iam head of to mobark in about 3hrs. to take a look at the used unit at the factory. or the other option is the bandit dealer is only 40km (24mi) away. I really like the hp advantage and solid bild of the morbark. but you cant over look the warrinte of the bandit .

Is 86 hp. really enough to spin that big drum of the 1090 or is that auto feed kicking in all the time . Any one with some knowlage on the two would be helpfull. (i droped a 4.5 foot dia. willow on top of my 1998 model 13, i know ,i know I cant even fire my self , but i did kick my self in the arss.
)

i will read all the replies when i get home tomorrow about 10pm .
Thanks in advance.

i am currently in the market for a new chipper as well and after seeing the new bandit 1090 in action i was very impressed, the auto feed wasnt kicking in much at all and when it did it got back up to speed very quickly.
