I wish it did 70.. It'll do 65, headed down hill LOL.... It's only a DT360, and it's running 2800RPM WOT at 60 in 5th High.

Ahh ok my old split dump looked like it but was dt 466 it would hold 70 but really now your home 55 60 is ok

Won't go threw a garden gate though , thing is 41" wide . But that's ok I have the 900t , man I am siked , I will take some pics of it tues . He gave it to me for a few days to run , but I haven't had time to go grab it yet .

My dingo with the wide tracks is i think 42" wide so i have the same problem. If they want me to work in there fenced back yard, they better have a bigger sized gate or be willing to take the fence down.

Right on all accounts. My last one was a DT466 and it held 70 NP. The low gears on the splitter are all I need for bangin around town with a trailer on this one though.

Thank you Sir! I actually bought it from a gentleman who is a member on this site. He runs a second generation tree service, and was the second owner of the truck, had it for 11 years. It's in nice shape and is tiny and easily maneuverable when compared to a full sized FP. I'm looking forward to running it.

I am guessing there is not to many tree services in arab alabama. Should have had you stop by my place and you could have picked up his zig zag he bought off me. You could have gave it to him when you picked up the truck.

Shoot, I didnt even notice that about the wide tracks... I did find a nice one all rebuilt with the standard tracks for sale. I use boards with everything I do anyway, no need for the WT's I suppose.

I flew down there, and drove through PA last night and today. Picked up a bunch of fireworks there actually. Sucks you guys arent allowed to buy the good stuff in the stores selling in your own state!!!

Just got back to BOS from a road trip that originated in Arad, Alabama with my new to me bucket.. What a drive going 55-60 the entire way home, about $500 in diesel. Truck took it like a champ.

Nice looking truck!

Nice looking truck!

Its def nicer than my 97 asplundh FP minus the 5 foot shorter boom. BUT, I think with the rear mount and short wheelbase configuration it will surely make up the difference.

 

[treemandan]

Hey, with you guys who knows? maybe in your commentary you could have said it was rotten so most of us wouldnt think of you guys as "bunny dressing retards"



Danno..........see this is why most of us who PM each other over some of the jackwagon idiots on this site think of the eastern crowd as being Murphed up..........its not an I before the XT its an L, but then again maybe the complete moron quote you used is fitting.

whats sad is the PM`s by the dozens on here "including me" state the things that would get us BANNED for life, so its just much more fun to have laughs with the other 20 or so posters in private about certain........howd you put it? MORONS on here!

L not I XT............LOL

I, L ; What do I care? You and yer homo bubbers can private message yerselfs into a full blown ankle grabbing, pillow biting, ass bleeding frenzy and I wouldn't bat an eye. Ok IXT?

Now I am hitting the IGNORE button, that's sure to twist his panties.

That's one sweet ride. With a short wheel base rear mount, you should be one happy camper.:msp_thumbup:

Hey McKee, did you ever get those pics of your equipment posted? I checked out your website but wanted to see your newer stuff.

That site is so old my whiskers were still black back then. I need to update it. Give me your email and I'll send a pic of our new swinger 1K.

Quoted a couple of jobs today. Had a nice brunch at a local restaurant with the family and friends and spent the afternoon doing yard work. Used the grapple on the mini to remove the 6x6 pressure treating timber lining the driveway in preparation for the paving company's arrival tomorrow. They are going to remove the old asphalt and widen the driveway by 3'. They'll have to return to pave it in 4-6 weeks.
Used my new Sthil power broom attachment to move all the winter crap off my lawn. Was so easy, I did both neighbours. They apparently work awesome on stump grindings.
Not bad weather, for a day that was supposed to rain.

Cleared out an old rabbit coup from behind my neighbor's garage, graded with the mini and seeded it. Was out 14 bucks for the #### at the dump as well as the seed and hay but I'm happy not to look at that pile anymore now that it's hammock season.

Then I took back those ####ty timberland hyperions as they had started coming apart after only a couple weeks. Got these Carolina's. Not as comfy but hoping they will last more than a month.

And then I washed and waxed the heavy chevy. For all it's little dents and dings I think it cleans up pretty well.

That's why I've always liked white work trucks. They can be dusty dirty, dented up, but from twenty feet away they look fine.

Well, maybe I want to battle with Jay-Z. I want to be prepared should that situation present itself.

On another note, I get a guilty (yet thoroughly enjoyable) pleasure watching my neighbor's attempt yard work. The dumb ##### with 15 cats on the other side of me has been raking her leaves for the past two hours while I'm sitting here, drinking beer on my stoop and looking at a perfectly good br600 backpack blower. If only she wasn't such a ##### to me, how easy her job could become.

I gave that 200t and 440 I picked up saturday a workout today, kept waiting for the other shoe to drop, but they were both flawless. Day and a half job done in a short day, miller time!!

I love steals like that.... Chance favors the prepared mind. I scan CL everyday even when I'm not looking at anything specific. I found 395XP and a BT145 back pack blower for $450 together once. Amongst other things.... Most of my stuff I own is from the classifieds!!!

Lookin at an 034 for 150 right now. never run one, decent saw?
