Thinking what a new skidder, log loader, feller buncher and chipper would cost? Maybe even a forwarder. That would be an awful big pile of $100 bills. Makes you stop and think where we are headed. In another month I can go to Boonville and look at the Big Boy Toys. lol

If someone could buy all that equipment new and all at once they would really like the woods business ALOT. I like it,but not that much.

A couple years ago at the Lake States Logging Congress Cat told me they could get me into a 501 harvester with a forwarder to match for a bit less than a million $$$$

Just over 2 million with a forwarder and whole tree chipper just some round numbers.

Do they come with a forest needing logged too? Makes my little farming outfit look pretty cheap.
