The A300 only weighs like 8500 lbs yes ??

Maybe...if you suck all the oil and fuel out, and remove the attachments. I think it tips the scale at more like 9200, ready to work with my grapple on it.

Yes, it is a bit heavy. When I bought it, I made sure I had the "floatation" tires to help reduce the compaction. They really aren't that much wider, though.
 
We burn all our chunk wood so it's not so time consuming on the tub grinder when it comes to grind. We also burn the brush in winter time and pile in the summer when it's to dry to burn. That's a couple summers worth, and we dump in various other places during the year.

First day out with the TX25 WT. Quite an impressive machine. We took down and stacked several 18" plus trees today, it made an ENORMOUS difference in productivity. Slight learning curve, and some moderate attack or turret's syndrome, but all in all I'm very pleased with the addition.

25T has a 28T chart, 92ft main boom 28-54 jib on a 1992 L8000 Ford 8spd Road Ranger interlock axels.

1992 truck 1996 boom

It wont be the end all be all, but it will be invaluable on jobs we would normally take a day with bucket access, save a lot of dynamic rigging, and also the huge trunked trees we seem to be getting called out on ALL THE TIME now.
