Do you what changes Carl? Other than the Hydraulic QA.
The better question is to ask Carl (Woodlandfarms) how many hours (and $$$) he spent replacing all his rotted hydraulic hoses... and whether or not he would do it again?
We're there. Business for us has dropped pretty good. Back around 2006, business was as good as ever. The 5310 was always working, and that big of tractor was needed for what we did, so was the Case 1845C Skid Steer. We had a fleet of a least 7 zero turn mowers, Toros, Exmarks (2 Exmarks had Kubota Diesels), and even a Dixie Chopper. We must have had over 100 jobs that year
Seemed like we were working almost every day. Now everything's different, The Case 1845 is rarely used, the 5310 is too big for our needs, were lucky if we get 1 job a week. We only have 2 zero turns left, their not the Exmarks with the Diesels either Last year we only had about 20 jobs instead of 100 in 06'. But I think work is starting to get better. We've currently had about 4 jobs this year (this time last year we only had about 1 job). Were thinking of selling the 2 zero turns and buying a Grasshopper 725D. Hopefully we'll keep the 5310, unless this 1850 can do the work of it. Thinking about selling the Case since we almost never use it.*Sighs* Man, things are tough. It's pretty hard watching your beloved business go down
The Grasshopper we're thinking about to replace 1 or both of our ZTRs (we've been looking at Grasshopper and Woods Front Mount ZTRs for 2 years now) Things have been getting a lot better
Only thing lacking here is a PT SLOPE MOWER THAT WE CAN GO SEE!!! Speaking of jobs, I gots to go. Lawn Mowing job today. I Get to run the Dixie Chopper!
