So after momths of not hearing from this guy, I get some info from another logger his way and the fact he is out of buisness, I hate picking, whinning and more so being lied to, I text the guy because he will not call, He says to me, Over a text, Which P#@%ed me of that it was my fault because I took it to a mechanic that just wanted to make money,Took it to the guy because it was a mess and I always go thru a machine when I buy it.  How do you run a skidder with a broken winch, 2 bad driveshafts, Enough metal drained out of the tranny to fill your hand, A steering colum that cost $1000.00 and so much more, He is know out of buisness, I am out of luck and its just to bad that a man who should respect the rest of us who work in the woods just unloaded a pile of junk. I appreciate all the comebacks on machine, its problems and I sure do hope no one else has to deal with folks like this Ron Fellow.

It's not going anywhere, Stoneeagle. It's here for us all to learn from, and the lesson is Buyer Beware.
