Wasn't there a model that had "Wicked" spelled out on the front?

Yes, that's our newest model for large compact and utility tractors up to 75hp.
It has it's own thread here: http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/attachments/345779-wicked-utility-grapple.html

Sold my old 1030 Massey Ferguson this afternoon. I'll be talking to guys at EA tomorrow! Making a decision on which grapple is almost as bad as picking my first new tractor. Will probably go with my first gut instinct, 66" dual lid.

Why do you need dual lids? Are you trying to both increase the cost and decrease the net lift capacity in one move????

Said in jest, but I tend to agree. I like my single lid because I can open it a slight amount (like when I slip off a log and need to re-grip). I don't have to open all the way up. I feel that 2 lids would almost always require one to open all the way before the second would open that 4" that I need. Then it has to re-close. Lots of times, there is brush or other shi....er, crud in the way of the lid opening.

Regardless, enjoy the grapple.

Another church member and I spent a day cleaning up tornado damage. He was using a dual lid grapple. I took notice of how many times the load was secured with both lids at a different clamp distance. Weight on a single and dual lid 66" is the same. Cost is only $300 difference. Just looks to me that odd load sizes will benefit from dual lids.

That's a very good point!
