    Doesn't knock other trees about but quite slow

    Inherently inefficient - no thanks. Cheapness of fuel offset by terrible thermal efficiency. Has to be compression ignition, end of.

    Pouring down here now and very mild; hate it. Cold and dry please. But I suspect it will be wet wet wet.

    how great? Have you measured the mpg?

    Rare Mitsubishi Outlander 4Work is another highly viable option. No logs, wouldn't hesitate... http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/mitsubishi/outlander-4work/65053/mitsubishi-outlander-4work-pictures/page/3/0 Mitsubishi Outlander 4Work Review | Auto Express What Van? winner 2014 | Mitsubishi Outlander | Mitsubishi Motors UK Prefer the cheaper, older version tho! Had split tailgate too

    Is there a solution? I've considered leaving the pickup at the yard for log deliveries and having a small efficient vehicle for commuting to harvesting sites. That means though extra trips to swap vehicles where neccessary. You need a 60mpg small diesel van to get there (100 mile round commutes per day) but then a 4 wheel drive when you get there. L200 currently averaging 25 mpg and sick of watching the fuel gauge never stop moving; just throwing money away. Higher mpg 4x4s exist but no butt to position under the processor elavator. Sick of trailers; reversing them up drives from hell. So, high mpg tool carrier AND pickup for logs (cabstar no good - need 4wd) or just the best mpg pickup there is? Thinking Ford Ranger Supercab of Hilux Extracab?

    Yep, lost my temper alright. I'm out cos I'm still raging and will get into deeper bother. Every damn echo or dolmar thread and up comes the troll "who's that trip trapping over my bridge". Well the billy goats gruff can cross the bridge too. Bye. Sorry to the OP.

    Just to be antagonistic. I don't think I'll be able to zip my lip when a husky thread comes up next. Nothing against them personally either but I will be making sure I get some abuse in. Just making out that they fall to bits, eat parts, get bad attitude at the dealer, blame the mix, that sort of thing.

    It's only the truth in your opinion; go figure. The fella asked about Dolmar, not for a same old same old anti tirade from you sunshine. :cussing::banghead::thefinger::shot::reddy::reddy::stupido3:

    And yet; we weighed the 6100 on the digital scales the other day; the dol 6100 on an 18" was 500g lighter than a stihl 036 on a 16". Nowt wrong with 036 power to weight. Modern superlight saws are for hairdressers
  12. TimberCutterDartmoor
    ENOUGH SAWTROLL!!! You're a dripping tap of anti anything you don't like or agree with and it's gone beyond the pale. Absolutely sick of it :thumbdown: The expression in mind has 3 "F"s in it.

    Weren't they supposed to be strong machines that would munch through anything? Danequip as above...

    I used to import the US ones (and still can if you really want one) until EU CE marked ones became more available; Shavey is a bona-fide agent for these. You can also get Dolmars through Makita UK (5 models only not inc the 5105 but the old 5100 do'h) by request but I'd sooner support Shavey on here; someone with passion for the brand and like myself who experienced the Sachs-Dolmar years and understand the pedigree of the Dolmar name, solidity of the machines and lack of electronics. 6100 on 18" 3/8 b&c was recently about £390+vat.

    Apple just copied Nokia OS in the first place, improved it perhaps but copied it nonetheless. Nokia were the best, still should be imo. Two fingered salute to you Apple.v:thumbdown:
  16. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Oh ffs, I don't get it. Is he in jail or not and what the heck for. Google only shows he might have upset someone over a saw. You are proper winding me up yes.
  17. TimberCutterDartmoor
    Just spit it out please; don't bear true or false witness without backing it up.
