Sold Brush bandit 1890 2400 hrs mint 34,000 price reduction need to sell new chipper here

These machines are amazing. I have run EVERYTHING. Twice. I already have 3 new chippers and I need something I can build a grapple on or I would buy this machine right now! Somebody is gonna hit the jackpot on this thing.
 
yeah my 12" 200xp has 114hp turbocharged and it only weighs 6500 pounds. I wonder if its worth the price to swap from a jacked up 200xp to the smallest motor 1890. Especially if my truck is going to struggle with the additional weight.....I have a international dt444e and it struggles with hills fully loaded with chips and the chipper. Not sure it would handle a 10k chipper very well. This is a quandry!
 
Not sure how big of a jump in productivity I will get from a 200xp disc to 1890 drum with only 10 additional horsepower plus 3500 pounds of extra weight.....

It will be a huge difference in production, you go from basically being able to chip small trees, and brush, to being able to chip entire 18 inch trees. On jobs with only 1 or 2 removals, no loading wood, you just chip it and go. The smaller motor isn't ideal, but if it runs well it only means the auto feed kicks on a little more.
 
No trimming....let the autofeed earn its keep when needed...screw a 12inch...may as well stack it in pickup...(j/k; not quite thaaaat bad)...
 
I hear you. Would have liked to scoop this, but found a used avant 528 for 30k straight up. 2017 900 hours with BMG. Picking that up this week. All other funds are kind of tied up currently. 18" will have to wait until 2020. Spread pretty thin right now.

Plus I'm worried how my trucks will handle 10k on the back. Won't know till I try!
