    That’s my thinking too -

    I’ve got a buddy I don’t talk to much that bought a T680 with a MX 13, it was a single screw. $30k or something. Bad move I advised.

    Cut the rear end, changed to a tandem. Wound up with the wrong rear ends.

    Last heard, bought a donor with a CAT motor and is swapping the motor and harness out.

    Cost unknown - he doesn’t track his figures well and his wife has a decent paying job, so he behaves like a spoilt child in regards to business matters.

    Just find a solid ‘something ‘ and stick with it.

    I use the nastc card solely. I’ve pumped about 22,000 gallons this year. I’ve not done the numbers yet to put a dollar amount on that.

    You’re gonna need more than an ambulance, pal.

    Better give Carl or Ron a call — hope you can afford the rate after that meal ;)
