Thank you and good call! New ones I think are about 200k and this one has low miles/hours. I drove it full time and ran the bucket 96% of the time. We all know the value of one operator for a given machine.
Yes this one has a good turning radius. The first bucket I ever had, twas a forestry body and sure enough, we called it The Whale. So many I see seem like blue whales on dry land, horrible to maneuver into anything less than a football field.
Agreed. And it looks exceptionally clean given your environment likes to rust everything out. Very tempting, but the bucket hasn’t quite fit the mold of my biz. Someone will be getting an incredible deal in a world of no deals.Thank you and good call! New ones I think are about 200k and this one has low miles/hours.

I'm still wrapping up alot of loose ends re retiring including selling equipment so I don't really fully feel 'retired' yet.
But I'm definitely enjoying no more never-ending work load- appts, writing estimates, scheduling (which I found virtually always challenging), paperwork. The tree work itself was usually the easy part though it did wear me out a bit. I'm enjoying doing different physical activity (including wood splitting lol) and looking forward to recreational tree and rock climbing.
One bonus is not getting stressed out when I drive around town and see jobs I lost out on or was never asked to bid on (well it still hurts a little lol).
I don't think I'll be at all bored and if I am I can work somewhere part time. I have a bucket list which has alot of doable things on it but one of the more splashy things is visiting Norway!!.
