- Had to get the log truck out and boy was she heavy!! This Burr oak isn't light and the mud didn't help. Had to get the D6 on the log truck to get it out!! The prentice slasher had to come out as well but that was a little easier, there is not as much weight as the other equipment.

wow you guys are some chipin and mudin dudes!!LOL alright dozer action yea !! that's so badass!! THANKS CHIPPER GUY!
Just another beautiful day in the logging neighborhood! The best thing is that you can keep a positive attitude and keep plugging along. I knew you were that type of guy the first time I watched your channel. Thanks!
Awesome videos, keep them coming. I'm glad we're not the only ones dealing with lots of mud
Great job with the dozer. I bought a new Cat D6H in 1990, never went to the shop during my ownership of 26 years (13,800 hrs.), great machines.
Thanks for the video.

arkansas13 I bought that D6h in 1995 from MI Cat with low hours and all new iron, it's a 1992 and has 10,000 hours on it now. We have never had any serious issues with it, if we ever need another one I'm buying Cat.

got to love that old dozer ! CAT POWER RULES ! good video
thanks for maken vids so everyone can enjoy. dig the dozer tho @chipper is alwayse second. a dozing chipper wow just struck gold !!LOL
She sounds good.
Get some of the timber mats they use for putting up power lines it might help with not getting trucks stuck but as always great video and stay safe
I'm somewhat surprised that the log truck doesn't pull with the front wheels too. Either way, that cat sounded amazing lol. I'm cheering you on brother. Keep rolling!
+Joshua Pearson Thanks Joshua!!
way to go boyz. onto the next one. Be safe

+Craig Nicholson Oh this new job is so much better!! Thanks for Watching Craig!!
It will be good to see u on it John mate

pushing is ALWAYS worse on equipment, I was freakin out when you were pushing the doubles! pulling always more controllable
I'm sorry but this truck will always have trouble in mud or snow with so many "lazy" axles, unless it has two more powered one... I mean it has 7 axles on a long chasis but only two of them has traction and they cannot give enough power to push all truck because of other lazy ones. If you need more axels for more load capacity, you should use a 8x4 or 8x6 combination with diff lock, so you can save more time and fuel for the rest of your trip ;)
At the 32 sec. mark the guy sounds like Gen. Patton. Check it out ! Funny.
mikey flopped the pete in the ditch comin off the mountain the other day almost rolled, i'll post some pics !
I am getting tired of all the videos of you struggling in the mud, I can only imagine how you feel lol. Got to be hard to turn a profit with these conditions.
Imagine having one of those cat tracked wobble truck chassis with custom log trailers n bunks....they use em to pull scraper pans...why not pull loads of logs through stuff like your in
Ship that load on down the line to ky!! I'll split it all for firewood!! Hahaha. Purdy ones...
+arborist460 Lol I don't care what ya do with them once ya pay for them haha thanks for watching!!
On a serious note..I just bought an alaskan mill and those would be good n straight ones to learn on..I'd like to cut some with mike..I'd sure take notes..lol
arborist460 Good idea!! I'll watch you do the work as I tell you what to do lol👍. Seriously, would be glad to cut with you someday.

My dad uses his ford f250 to pull our stuck trucks out.... I guess this is a small step from that isn't it lol
+Alex Hearn lol Hey wouldn't hurt to try!!! Thanks for Watching!!
Muito bom o vídeo cara
How many bf can you fit on that log truck? Just curious
That's an impressive load. Does that log truck have three sets of drives or is that just a pusher?
Jacob Gilkerson Two drive axles and 4 airlift axles on the lead, there steerable air lifts did you notice that the last one on truck was turning sideways in the mud, that is one problem with them in muddy conditions they will turn sideways and makes it harder to push out.

Cooks Forest I can see it better now. the internet was slower on my end earlier today......a little fuzzy. Didn't notice the tag before either. That's some weight there. You guys do good work with that flail chipper. That morbark puts out some consistent chips compared to the chippers I've used. I've never ran a flail type. The clearing company I worked at had/has a couple big bandits. They worked well but the chip quality wasn't even close to what you have with that machine. Their chips were/are just burnt up I'm assuming yours must go to a pulp plant or something
Jacob Gilkerson They go to a paper mill, their specs are pretty tight, but this chipper does great with a 90-92 percent accepts average, we're required a 86 percent minimum. We have been producing flail chips since 1994, we bought one of the first generation flail-chip combo units Morbark built, it was very reliable and made good chips we own 2 of them and run them until 2013, now their used for backups and small jobs. John has videos of them. The 2755 we now have is a fifth generation and has many improvements and technology that has been great, Morbark has spent years and a lot of money to develop them, I feel they are the best ones you can buy.

On past history and experience how often do you get in a mud mess like this? Is it just early in the winter or does it happen again in the Spring when the ground thaws out?
Dan Whiteford Every season change usually brings mud. This job was a winter job that would have been fine, we had that could weather a couple of weeks ago and then we got warm weather and rain that made it a mess. Just was bad timing, went over there this afternoon and it was freezing up nicely and would have had no mud problems.

hi, how much can you gross in Michigan with the number of axles your log truck has?
+Merlin Monson 164,000 lbs. Thanks for Watching!
gland I wasn't riding in the loader. fairly sure my butt would have puckered up a couple times. looked like it was close to going over.
just curious why don't you guys put the tag axles down? wouldn't it pull easier? I know you need to pick up some if not all to turn
No, worse - they just ball up the mud better. The ones that are down in the muck aren't turning at ground speed either. They just kinda roll sometimes. But as soon as the frozen bottom comes up some then they roll and she's free. Tag axles = drag. And they are a bit short on push and pull already.
Да б*ять..!Хорошо когда есть работа для мужиков!!!
Words fail me, everything not to do.
Allens stuck
Why doesn't he open up his grapple and pick up the front of the loader then pull 100 percent easier
Jay Harris I was thinking the same thing since the back axles are the ones with the power. it would keep the steer tires from bogging the front down.
