Im sure mogs are gr8 but damn they must cost a bomb to run.

 

They cost lots to run, BUT, IME, they make even more.

 

I used turn over around £50k to £60k with a 3.5 ton pickup, working like a dog.:thumbdown:

 

I now turn over £100K, taking life much easier, with a mog.:001_smile:

 

Works for me :001_smile:

How have you doubled your profits im interested just what can i mog hold in chip n logs.

 

I would have thought the cost of 1 mog equats to same running cost as 2 trannys.

 

:confused1:

 

I know they carry so impressive chippers etc

No I did not double my profit, I doubled my "turnover", big difference.

 

My profit only increased by about by around 50 or 60%, as my over heads also went up, as mogs are expensive to buy and maintain.

 

A larger mog without trailer will carry around 3ton of chip, but the trailer is the secret, as I can pull a 13ton trailer.

 

A 13ton trailer will carry 9 or 10ton, which equates to around 7 to 10 tranny's

Or you could buy an 18 tonne truck, which carries 10 tonnes on its own, hardly ever goes wrong, and costs much much less than a mog!
