Thanks guys. Wish it was my shop! It's up at Hubler Brother getting the frame extended, tag added and the grapple installed. Will be done on Friday, then it comes home to have the box built.

Just wow! Nick... You impress the hell out of me young man!
Impressive for any age at all
Nick, if I recall many moons ago, you posted that you were hoping to build a tree service that would tend to run itself without out your constant on the job presence, how's that coming along?

Very nice Nick. Is it a brand new T800?
Cory, there is no way it is anything but a rear mount.

Thanks Guys! Its been a big debate between going new and used. I thought that the value of having a warranty overweighed the savings of purchasing a used truck. This is my first new vehicle and has been a journey finding the right truck and getting it outfitted with everything that I want.
The truck is a 2015 Kenworth T-800 Extended cab. It has a 525 HP Cummins with an 18speed manual trans, 20K fronts, 50K chalmers rear suspension with a Hendrickson 20k rear tag axle. It has Alcoas Aluminum rimes with Dura-Brights, dual air cleaners, dual exhaust, power windows, power mirrors, AM/FM/CD/Bluetooth. Its going to get a Prentice 2124 Rear mounted loader with a Hydra-Headboard and a Rotobec Debris grapple. I am going to put a 75-80 box on it.
This will be my first year not working in the field full time. I am going to only work a day or two in the field with the guys. I hired a part time book keeper that will be working a day or two a week with me in the office, which will be a huge help! I am also very glad that this is my last semester of school!
