We have 2 large log trucks, the loaders are Hood and the trucks are Internationals with auto trans, air ride suspention, air conditioning, nice rigs. We also have 4 smaller loaders for our brush pick up contracts.
Mark, they are indeed city and township contracts. They require grapple loaders and will not allow chippers. I think because of the noise and labor. We have owned grapple loaders for about 20 years we have used Prentice and Hood and have nothing but good things to say about both machines. One Hood is about 5 years old the other Hood is at least 15 years old and is on its third truck.
