    I really wanted to bid on that critter when I saw it. That would be the ultimate firewood 'tool' for my woods. I'm glad you got it though, I knew it would be way out of my budget.

    I am a regular on the auction site you found it on, both as a buyer and seller for my workplace.

    Glad u didnt outbid me!! I am really looking forward to it. I found all of the manuals. I am waiting for the final approval from the seller. I hope to pick it up Saturday as I am out of town most of next week for work. It was this, or waiting for the right Cat skidsteer to come up on Iron Planet. I burn 10-12 cords each year, all of which start at the stump on my property or the neighbors. This thing will pay for itself, or at least I say it will. I was looking at $25K for a skidsteer of decent quality so this is a big savings....so i tell my wife.

    I think you did awesome!:thumbs: 25k don’t seem to buy much of a skidsteer, at least around here. I bought a terex pt 70 last August for $26k no cab or heat/ac just a rops cage. They are super handy once you get some attachments. I got only a bucket, got to start getting toys for the front end :makeitrain"

    Yes, you'd need cooled seats to feel that effect.

    Or a bag of frozen peas. ;)
