    People just like to express how good their set up is for their work, nothing wrong with that at all, I wish I had a defender tipper, transit and Mog too add to my colection

    It was a minter! AgriMog on here came with me to check it over, he said it was one of the cleanest Mog'a he had ever seen! And he knows Mogs!!!

    I learnt one thing from Colin White, that was how to wipe your arse with one sheet of bog roll..... Great cheers Colin RIP

    I worked for Colin white back in the day, what a hard man to be employed by! His company is still going but ran by his son. The Mog that tid thread was started about fell through, as I rang the fella to pay the deposit he had so e great news for me.... Gearbox packed in! I advised he took it to Alex Price but later found out it was down at Park Agri.... A year went by and still no fully running Mog??? This left me thinking maybe this was a sign... So I held off and went to see a great guy in Scotland, met him in a supermarket car park and had some great crack. / weeks later I was the new proud owner of my current Iveco, cheers again Stevie lad!!!

    This is all based on my work, Iveco 4x4 and Vermeer 230 IS the ultimate Arb Rig....., for my work, I've used Mogs, Ive used a whole lot if kit and decided on what I have based on where I work and what kind of work I do.l As for removing timber in large amounts I use my JCB loader with grain trailer.....perfect! Job done!

    I spoke to a squirrel expert at a country show a while back and i was quizzing her regarding a hybrid squirrel, mate a red with a grey.....? Not such a daft idea to someone who knows very little regarding them. She went on to inform me that reds and greys are so different it would be like mating a cat and a dog??? Unbelievable, back to the drawing board for me then There are still reds up in Northumberland but getting less and less

    Cracking video mate, im still getting to grips with my Go-Pro, do you have the extra battery pack for yours?

    Any hilux will struggle when towing its limitation (around 2100kg depending on model), im needing something with a little more grunt
  15. chrisgilltreesurgery
    I run an Iveco 4x4 pulling a Vermeer 230, also I have an Ifor Williams tipping trailer 3500kg but my mk5 hilux struggles when its loaded, yes i can tow the tipping trailer with the Iveco and put the chipper on the hilux but the Vermeer is 2100kg so the hilux will still struggle a little...... I think im gona be on the look out for something with more grunt! Options please...
