To be honest I really do not care to have them even right here in fairbanks. We do have a woodmizer dealer, and I like him for what little I have talked to him, but only one and he is 370 miles from here, so I just do not really want anything I would need any type of outside support to keep running. It is one of them great till it breaks types of deals, and since I am not high production oriented with the mill, It is not a must have.
I had not run a mechanical engine in any of my trucks since 99, till I bought a log truck, now I am in the slow process of building another one that is older with a mechanical engine, I do not care for computers in the woods, and they are not needed.
The log scales on my truck is a prime example, I can order them here, but there is not really a dealer in Alaska, and no one in the state to work on them when needed, luckily the manufacturer will stay on the phone with you to try and diagnose problems, but I wish I just didn't have to have them to start with, will not need them at the remote site, won't even need tags or tie down gear either, some aspects of it is right up my alley. lol
