Instead of doing that just send all your money to me.

They sure want a lot of money as a guarantee... 10% of something plus 20% of total estimated bid... Plus that whole road maintainance stuff.


Honestly I have no ******* idea what I'm getting into on this end of things.

No seeding, reclamation, etc? Usually they saddle the 'winner' of a bid with a huge amount of extra crap.

haven't seen the fine print, there is some road maintainance, Not even sure if its a clear cut or thinning, if its a thinning I'm out, can't compete with a feller buncher.

Thats pretty... and a good price.

I'd be hard pressed to keep it busy though.

If you did it right you could do a quick change with a dangle head and make it usable for two different uses.

I have a Fabtek 240 dangle sitting with hours on it but would be pretty easy to swap on to that machine.

You realize most of my jobs are 2-5 loads, and having a processor would be the definition of overkill right.

A 240 like that can double your output perday, I've ran it after taking a butt cut or cutting alder it can really speed stuff up. It's a 24" simple head with 24 wire and 4 hoses coming down with the wire hose.

I think what Matt is saying, is that's a great machine, but a chitload of money -- too much debt to take on at this time.

I get that completely trust me I have a harvester down more then up, only thing I'm trying to say is if you're looking make sure you can still get parts for them. We have a John Deere 653e and now you can't get parts for it.
