Sure wish that was the case on days like this. Should have the new axle by friday. My year sure isn't starting off the way I was hoping.

For the right price you could have this one now. I will even throw in a new axle. Lol

I know the feeling. Everything cost so.dam much and people think you should cut down there tree for $200.
I have a 18" morbark chipper and a 75' bucket and a grapple truck or trailer on my wish list. Someday. It's so hard being patient. Lol

We have the same wish list my friend. Good thing about working where I do is the custy either pays the price, or the tree stands. No one does tree work in Boston for short money.

Sorry to hear that man. Sucks. Sounds like the retard should have never even been behind the wheel.

He is actually a good guy. I am betting that it was damaged before but who knows. Is what it is.

Pretty hard to break an axle by simply driving a chip truck on a paved road unless its grossly overloaded. If he was dukes of hazard style for sure, but the picture didn't look like he was out mudding with it lol...

I am guessing it was partially damaged from before. The guy that worked for me over last summer couldn't seem to start on even the slightest hill even after I showed him the trick of leaving the air break on till the clutch engages. **** happens. Can't be mad because it doesn't change anything.

Who's handing out CDL's to these guys. I learned to drive a truck when I was 16 in my Uncle's 1969 two stick one stack Mack with no shack on the back. I had that trick mastered before I hit 17.

It's only a 25,999 lb rated truck. I rode with the guy over the summer and he drove it good but seemed like he could drive worth a **** when I wasn't riding with him. It is probably because he was off in la la land.

Just bought a dingo 425 WT and a BMG Used it on a decent size removal yesterday. Couldn't be more thrilled.

Still to break an axel is some serious chite. You'd be wrong as 2 boys ****** in church running a 25.999 truck with a 7k chipper on the back of it without a CDL here in MA.

I removed a pretty good sized locust tree that had a bad rotten crotch with a lead over the garage. The job was on a farm and all the brush went to the burn pile and wasnt able to get the log loader to it so we did old school.

Idk. I was always told you didn't need a Cdl if the trailer was under 10,000 lbs and the truck was under 26k
