I've decided I can't live any longer without my own skid steer and am ready to start shopping for one.
Ive run both tracked and tired ones a lot, and as of right now could go either way for most of the kind of work I do, which is snow removal, some dirt work, and unloading trucks with forks.
However starting this year I'm looking at going to work for myself full time, and one of thing things I want to go is get a timber sale and start doing firewood.
I was leaning more towards a track machine, but I'm wondering if a tire machine would be better in a logging application. Ill be making roads, skidding logs, clearing snow, loading logs, and probably get a wood processor for it as well.
What are your guys thoughts on the matter?
