You bet. For the record, I purchased this truck from TreeSwinger, he can vouch for it too. Still a very reliable girl.

Looks sharp!

Tom, have you had issues with finding climbers with a CDL or willing to obtain one? The classes here are $1200 for a Class B CDL and $2000 for a Class A CDL. Yours would require a class B it sounds like.

tomthetreeman · Dec 9, 2014

Yes, it's a class B. Haven't had trouble there really, although the license is a bitch to obtain in RI because of the bureaucracy.

They change the fandangled air brake test every year. Just to ensure everyone fails the first time.

Job security for those D-bags. If everyone has to come back a second time, they are in more demand. It's so obvious.

They even gave my friends dad a hard time with the air brake test and he was exclusively getting his class b to drive the fire truck for Richmond rescue. He ended up calling a state rep and things changed for a short while.
