Has anyone out there used a bandit stump grinder and can you give any pros or con as compared to other manufacturers. Model 2900 track in particular.

Day 2 of running a new Bandit 2100 after running a Vermeer 365. Tough to make a great comparison as the Bandit is new and the Vermeer had been through several operators, rolled a couple of times etc.
There are lots of minor differences, but I'm sure I can adapt. The big difference I've noticed so far is the drive belt to the wheel on the Vermeer is on the left side, whereas the Bandit is on the operator side. Due to the guarding, I can't see the wheel and see what it is cutting.
The Bandit has a longer wheel base and a wider turning radius.
The Vermeer had a Diatzu (Briggs and Stratton) engine that was a POS.
Hey guys thanks for your replies. The Bandit rep is bringing a new machine over tues for me to demo and says sign the paper and its mine. I just want to make sure Im getting a good deal and that I will be happy with the machine. Since you both have the same machine that he is bringing and are happy with it. The only other question is, is 14,300.00 a good price?
