Congrats CB for having the batteries big enough to take on that sort of debt . I'd love that machine but would not find work for it in OZ . I have enough trouble when people ring me asking my hourly slashing rate , when i tell them $110ph the phone goes silent , then they tell me they can get it done for $66ph . I have a brand new TL100A 4X4 New Holland tractor with an 8' mower/mulcher that walks through stuff up to 2" leaving scrub like lawn and it has an 84" grapple rake that i pile thier junk into piles instead of mowing around . My oposition has a $3000 45hp tractor with a 5' slasher , no blade/rake , no rego , no insurance and leaves the place looking like crap , but it's the $ph they are looking for . I'd have no chance at getting a job with words like $300ph which you have too get to make payments , repairs , insurance , fuel , money to carry us through wet/quiet times and seeing as were not doing it for fun , some sort of proffit , if you can't get that sort of money your better off putting a paper hat on and working at the drive through at McDonalds .
