    O20T replacement saw

    Been using the ms201t and it's great. Better than the husq 338 and t540 in my opinion.

    What are your dream trucks?

    That is beautiful! For me this would work later in the future when I can afford it of course and also having a resposible knowledgeble worker with CDL because as the owner it's hard for us to do all the right work all the time. Specially when we get old lol.

    How to get new contracts

    I've used Homeadvisor for about 4 years and have gotten a ton of residential customers but you do have to use Homeadvisor strategically otherwise you loose money. They do offer commercial leads but are just so expensive so I only request residential leads. Dont ever use Angiest list though.

    What are your dream trucks?

I like the older diesel trucks since are easier to work on and of course cost less and are very reliable but most specifically I think a dt466 or Ford with cumming engines would be great plus I love how they look. Currently my bucket truck and chip truck are Freightliner Fl50 and...

    Boxer 322D

    Hey my 650tx uncurls down very slow when I'm also raising the bucket. Does yours do that as well or is it something I have to check? When I'm lowering the bucket and uncurling it does it fine. It's just raising and uncurling. Any help here? Thanks!

    Boxer 322D

    Ah I see. I saw many videos on YouTube of a skilled guy using the BMG and yes it looks like it takes time to get used to which I will do.

    Buying 1988 swaploader?

    The truck is sweet! I'm really thinking of buying it and if it fails keeping the hoist. Would that make sense as opposed to buying a new one being way expensive? Which I can't afford now of course.

    Buying 1988 swaploader?

    No CDL but I could get one. Just too busy. I'm even driving our 35lb bucket truck without CDL shhhh. The truck is juice brakes 25lbs so no CDL needed. I think.

    Boxer 322D

    3 days ago I bought a used 2015 vermeer 650tx. Did a ton of research on which mini to buy and every where it said stay away from boxer. Best choices will be ditch witch and vermeer.
