How to write off a chipper

[treequip]

Apparently treequip, $35k for a new cab on the truck gets it back on the road. I was of the same opinion as you; totalled.

That's reasonable, I suppose the high value of the bin lift gear makes the truck more repairable. I am pretty sure UK insurers would have given it a write off.

 

Your chipper will go again for a lot less

Hope so. She's well looked after and an excellent bit of equipment.

We have had Three Bandit chippers over the years involved in accidents, one was shunted from behind & ended up imbedded in the top of the windscreen of the car.

 

Outcome car written off chipper that was only 6" new tailboard & pole coupling, didn't even smash the lights.

It always amazes me how the hitch couplings and their fittings hang in there. Did the driver admit to driving quickly? I made a bigger mess of a landrover pulling a trailer 12 years ago. I was only doing 40mph and due to broken spring leaves on the trailer it just snaked everywhere. Pictures are early digital days:001_rolleyes:

Glad everyone was ok!
