I would like to see what everyone uses for residential tree removal. From mini loaders to large tractors. Attachments are nice too. Also any pros and cons to that unit. Thanks.

Nice I started to go with newer too many $ for me to see profit.
Oh well something to look forward too, at least I have paid mine off!
Great machines they are back savers for sure, I actually enjoy the
cleanup again:laugh:

Amen to the back I really don't think I could go back
to the trailer, even though I still use it on jobs that
truck access is a no way! I have been able to get in
90% and have went up on price where I can't, so if
I have to man handle it is for $.

here's a picture of one our grapples, lifts 12500 and has a 30ft. reach:chainsaw:

Out of curiousity, how do you get the logs from the backyard to the street?

Not seeing that thing get in many back yards. Just curious. Are you using the loader in conjunction with another piece of equipment? I would love to have the capacity of a loader truck.
