Great brand! I want to buy an FAE rock mill and start milling roads on the weekends for a side business.

Do you have an auxiliary cooler on your machine for your mulcher? If not, how long are you able to run before you have to shut down and cool off unit?

I really want to rent one and destroy some stuff. Maybe this offseason.

What's the going rate of pigs per day for mulching?

It's not mine. Cheaper to hire the owner down the road. But I must admit it's a badass machine. Thing idles quieter than my F 350.

I was very close to buying that exact machine but didn't want to have to drive to Abilene to get parts. Test drove a friend's Kubota and loved how the door opened on the cab. There were two machine brands with 0% financing when I was looking. Kubota and Cat, Cat won out for being local and access to parts and service faster. Pissed a buddy from Yellowhouse off when I didn't even ask him about a machine but they had terrible rates compared to 0.0%

That is the oddest question of the day eva on the OB…

I will really like to rent or buy one and get rid of some stuffs with it

A brand new 100 hp compact track loader runs anywhere from 90-115k for most of them. The Cat forestry package is 150k but it comes with big auxiliary cooler and mulcher attachment. Those mulcher heads or rock mills are about 40-50k.

Best time for Pig population reduction is after the Pecans start dropping in the Orchard. Best buffet in Eastland County.

I've watched a guy with a similar looking rig mulching a few acres along a highway row for the last week.
I doubt he has done 5 acres of Myrtle bush looking stuff. Thick but not too tall or crazy.
How many acres can one of these do a day? Not sure if he's padding hours or it's just that slow.

I tried one once but felt too claustrophobic inside it and it was rough as hell. Plenty experience with excavators and dozers but almost none on a skid steer.

same question but Aoudad. We have plenty of both

Buddy has a Terex skid steer with the drum roller. Would not recommend. Way too many electrical problems. I would try any other brand.

I think Giddings is trying to ask how many pigs will he have to let you kill in exchange for mulching.

I can speak Lee County if I try real hard.

Made perfectly clear sense to me.

There's the problem!

It's just fun watching it mulch/destroy Mesquite and other trash trees down to nothing.

"Nothing? Hold my beer" - Mesquite roots.

Try and mulch mesquite without spraying, you're just in the mesquite farming business.

My brother has an ASV 120F he bought a few months ago. Came with QA bucket, forks, tiller and that mulcher head. I gotta say those machines are bada$$ to go thru stuff. Im in SoTx so nuthin but mesquite and huisache.
