There is an older thread on this that seems to be dead. So I am getting my first chipper and so far I have been renting but 500 a day is killing me and the bank says go pick one out. The budget is $10000 max so you know we're talking used. I am most interested in 12 inch feed models, seems like a good size. Around Atlanta all the major brands are supported and parts are available. Questions (pick one)
Are really old chippers (20+) worth looking at?
Are "the hours unknown" chippers good?
Any engine brands known to be trouble?
Are drums any way better than discs?
Is a diesel better than gas?
Is a hydraulic lift a must have?
Would you look at a unit with high hours?
