Skyhucks Mog was based on the Mog we had, so he told me. The biggest problem with big kit is that it needs to be out everyday earning it's keep, so it ends up going out on jobs it's not really suited to. Of course, common sense would say take out the

Roadrunner instead of the Mog, but then that's another gang that can be doing something else. There isnt a perfect vehicle for Arb work, everything is going to be just a compromise. No two jobs are the same, hedgetrimming one day and massive take downs the next Transits aren't ideal, overweight with your sandwiches on the back, and the way they're clamping down it's hardly worth the hassle tbh.

I guess if I was in a postion to look at something it would be along the lines of Peter Haines truck, good capacity, capable of lifting timber out, or have a bin and chip into it.
