i have been saying i was going to get another skidder for a while now i went and looked at the 170 and i like it it looks like a good tight machine with no leaks. the topkick motor went bad (427) :'( so i sold it as is $3000. i found a F 800 ford cummins desiel, cab and chassis in manassas va. im probably going to pic up mon. here is a pic of the skidder.

Treefarmer,
What time on Monday will you be in Manassas? Who are you purchasing the equipment from? If you are in or around Manassas after 3:30 PM, give me a call (703-795-8821).

I built a dump truck out of one of those. I think you'll like it.
Congrats on the new iron! now to increase your wood output, and "knock on wood", that you have minimal breakdowns. Keep up the good work!
Nice skidder!
