    when delimbing a tree like this one, you always do an "undercut" before sawing through the limb from the top, that way you ensure that the falling branch/limb does not tear the bark all the way to the trunk.

      There is a trade off though. The older trucks are reliable and simple, I'm talking Non computer controlled. On the other hand newer trucks are more comfortable, better fuel mileage and usually but not always have more power. I have an 88 359 that pulls my lowboy, big Cam 400, and its starts up everyday even when its 10deg out. The tradeoff is it sucks down fuel, its loud and its rough as shit. But I keep it because its reliable.
