I've been running a WoodMaxx WM-8H for about 6 months and love it. I was like you and would cut brush (mostly honeysuckle) for a month then rent a chipper and finally after doing that for months purchased. I looked at the BX62 but wanted a chipper with power feed to help break down the bushy honeysuckle.

Nice set up there!
Yeah, it really gets old spending an entire weekend running a rented chipper to maximize your rental costs... only to have a bunch more limbs / brush fall the next week in a storm! :thumbdown:
Plus, I will be able to get the chipper into more hairy areas now with it connected to the tractor. I have some trails in the woods that I really need to clean up. There was no way my Silverado towing a chipper could go in there, ha!
I looked at a hydrostatic feed for the BX62... I think it's the BX62r? I hope I don't regret not getting a power feeder... yikes!
The simplicity of the BX62S really drew me in, though. I figured the hydro-feeder was just another thing I was going to have to take time to learn about and fix when it broke.
