What are some of the oldest skidders you guys use?I know some of you bigger loggers can't afford to keep a old one around but what about some of you guys that are small or part time loggers?We have a 66 ford N600 semi cab over dump truck that we haul with,a old prentice g on a 72 ford cabover and a old 1970 Franklin 120 that we put a 6 cyl 250 chevy gas engine in with the trans.Does everything we ask it to,maybe not as fast as the new ones but has been plenty reliable.I think we have about $1200 in it and have had it for 6 years and done 6 little logging jobs from 12-15 loads of scrag wood to a nice cherry job that we went half on with the land owner.also have used it to haul junk cars out to a loading place to load with the prentice and right now to plow the driveway.Just a big toy
