Probably only useful to the couple of members here in aus.
Been a rough month for me. Got pulled up by the DOT heavy vehicle inspectors who bent me over a barrel for mostly minor stuff. That ate up a lot of my savings, added to the repair work they ordered done I couldn't drive my truck for a couple weeks and had it parked up. Spent most of what I had put aside for yearly bills which all arrive this month (registrations, insurance, taxes). Lost a tonne of work from being off the road. Went out to the truck today in a surprisingly optimistic mood ready to put the final touches on the work and get her back on the road to find that it was broken into. All gear lost, 200t, snellerised 201T, 241cm, 3 x 441 mtronics, masterminded 660, couple husky 346's, wraptor etc etc.
There's nothing left in the kitty to buy new gear and I wasn't insured. Even if I had gear I don't have the cash to pay all the yearly bills anyhow. Truck and chipper are now on the market. It's a 99 NPR 400 low miles with a 12 cube bin, great toolboxes, excellent service history and just this week had about $5k spent on redoing the brakes. Chipper is a 250XP with the 120 turbo perkins which has also been well looked after and has had all the major work done over the last couple years; disk bearings, clutch, roller bearings. Both are in great condition, registered and ready to work with not a dollar to spend. Askind AUD$35k for both, comes with signage and company name if wanted, also with business number and advertising which never stops ringing, plenty of leads and work to go right away. PM if interested.
