    Half fill the big tanker in soft ground the big tyres are away better than razor blades on the 1350

    We have soft ground. We went from a 1300 to a 1600 and now have a 2000gl. And the 2000gl is the best to travel. Its all about the tyres. Bigger tyres are the only way.

    Looks like it will do the job you want it for. Could use it to haul water when you need it and not tie up the bigger tankers aswell can be used to move watery slurry to other end of the pit to wash it thru also

    Its awful hard to find a good small tanker with a wide wheel base anymore. Our neighbours have an absolutly gorgeous star 1300g tanker, fully recessed with good size tyres like a 2000 gallon, it floats so well on ground and pulls awful easy too. Love that tanker, theyre restoring it with lots of welding and a new pump, great tanker, nobody botheres to make a recessed 1100-1300 gallon tanker anymore, even though there is some demand for them in fermanagh / west tyrone where i live. Abbey and redrock make nice 1600 gallon recessed tankers which is good.

    • @johnlangan709

    @TheElectricgamez 5 месяцев назад +3

    get either a tanker with wide tires or a tandem axle as this tanker on these pizza cutters won't be much better than the 2500 with those wide tires on half a load.
    a different tanker may be more expensiver but more usefuller, it might be better to hold off for now and invest the money elsewhere, think of the roi.

      well at some point you are too heavy. Whether 1000, 2000, 3000 or more gallons in one tank at some point you're going to find what sinks. Trouble is if the big tanks work for majority of lads everyone wants that when it's not possible. At the same time though, if it is too wet for a tractor and spreader, whether fertiliser or slurry you probably should have stayed in the yard
