I think our estimator is a tard for the price he gave but it's for a customer that has used us for 40 years well both this house and the neighbor. 700 bucks grind 4-6 deep and leave level, haul excess shavings. The way it's bid is to use our Carlton 4012? I can't remember it's 44HP or somethin, that will take all day... My idea plywood and the Vermeer 752 and our grapple truck for shavings the Bossman is like nah I'll just send 3 guys out (normally it's 2) if I get sent to shovel Im quiting!
I don't know but I want to find out. Looks to me like it would do fine, but I have zero experience running one. I'm thinking about going and getting it and maybe a camper to live in as well.
Look at that clam then look at this clam. the closed sides will not allow you to grab logs
It looks to be designed to handle dirt or gravel or rocks or something.. Thus the small box on the back
Yeah I can tell it wasn't designed for tree work being that small and a tandem axel. I see what ya mean now, I have a set of torches and and grinder to fix that.Look at that clam then look at this clam. the closed sides will not allow you to grab logs

Cut em out. That's one hell of price for that truck.
I really don't care how my customers treat me. They can have the greatest respect (most do, btw), or they can act like I am their personal hey-boy. As long as they hire me to do the work and then pay the bill, I am good with that.
After all, I am the one that sets the price for the service. All I expect in return is to stand aside while we work and to pay the bill when we are done. If they are asinine enough to get my attention, then I might feel obliged to raise the estimate.

Just a quick question... Does your bidder have experience with doing tree work? Some outfits hires guys out of car dealerships to sell work, when they have no idea how long it will take.
