55" or 60" Root Grapple EA vs MTL

[kenmac]

No pictures of a damaged thumb grapple? Maybe it did not happen?

I do not have an MTL Grapple and I never said I did but I do know that your statements that an MTL can only pickup toothpicks is simply not credible. Come on now, be truthful.

so, you don't even own the grapple you claim is so good ? LOL. The way I use things, I would have a cheap grapple turned into scrap metal in a very short time

That is a thumb on a bucket. Not a grapple. No story here.

Ok, so you don't even own this MTL grapple you are touting as a good grapple. But you know what it can pick up ? LOL
Do you even own any grapple ?
I have shown pics of what an EA grapple can do. You haven;t posted what your grapples have done, nor what an MTL grapple has done because you don't even own the grapple you speak of...... WOW !

It might be a good idea to settle down and get some sleep given your time zone. I never said that I have an MTL grapple, but I did say that I have 3 grapples and none of them are EA, Also none of them have ever failed. I have posted grapple pictures in numerous threads. To reiterate, your thumb add-on to a bucket is not a grapple and you have no experience in non EA grapples (unless you can post a picture).

Also to reiterate, EA makes an excellent product, no doubt whatsoever. But does everyone need to spend that much money on a grapple just because other EA customers did? In my opinion, no they do not. Numerous other manufactures can make grapples that can pick up brush, logs, rocks or whatever. Members do not need to buy an EA grapple to do simple grapple work. They can save some money and that is my point.

so, I have a bucket grapple, and an EA grapple which I have posted pic of. You own 3 grapples with no pictures of them with any work involved.
Ok, big guy... I got ya now ! LMAO !

Guess you have never heard of a bucket grapple. You should educate yourself on them. Many are sold under the name bucket grapple
But for someone that owns 3 grapples with no pics should know that.. O' and one of the grapples you are saying is can do anything. You don't even own ! LOL

Nothing wrong with a bucket grapple, it is just not applicable in this thread which is about higher priced and better quality EA grapples vs lower priced but still good MTL grapples. If you want to search my posts you will find pictures of grapples, but it is not pertinent. My position is that money can be saved by many, many TBN members buying a lower cost grapple. You might have needed an EA grapple but not everyone does. Is it not awful late back there? Sleep is good.

I had a cheap grapple and I spent more time welding it back together than I did using it. That’s why I bought a good one the second time around. Even if you don’t break the grapple which isn’t that likely on the OPs smallish tractor the weight savings of the better constructed grapple would make a lot of difference.

What grapple is that, if you don’t mind? Thanks

My friend ordered his 55" Wicked Root Grapple last week, arrived yesterday afternoon (order to delivery time has greatly improved since they have moved to the new building) and he sent me a picture with it on his tractor ready to go to work with it.

so now, you call it a bucket grapple, where before it wasn't a grapple ? LOL do you even know what a grapple is ?
Search my post and you will find pics ? :laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing::laughing: I'm not going on a witch hunt that never happened.

Money can be saved on many cheap items vs more costly items. Why wast money on cheap, and have to but something that cost more when you break the cheap ?

Perhaps you should go buy an a grapple. Then, you will be able to post pics of you using your grapple:laughing::laughing:
