bucket goon ? hey jmack when you get in the tree business let us know, not all tree services that have buckets are hacks.

Most climbers that bad mouth buckets is because they dont have the talent to make them work or ....just jealous.

lets just leave it alone

Jmack, I would usually say to use the right tool for the job, but if you ran a bucket, then it would be the right job for the tool. Bucket trucks have thier place, they can make things a lot faster and safer.

yeah.. if i was a tool. ok ok i got one, 50' asplundh mounted on 90 ih s1900 with the mat jib its sweet, td over the drive and house, wires, cable drop, a real beef... the jib and bucket worked like a charm!

I had a tree co try and give me a bucket last month or so it was. A father son operation and the son wears the C.A. sticker on his hat and said he dont climb trees just bucket. They had called me into climbout a tree. I looked down as he was riding the bucket and asked, "what about when you trim, do you wear spikes then?" It was obvious to me that they didnt care for trees, and was just making money.

Im in my first F150. Man is it a tree mover. I love um not one problem yet.,

If your in it for the mega bucks and wanna start a train of tree trucks and employees, a bucket is 4 times more productive than a climber and it should be your second purchase after a chipper.
