Why the hydraulics?

Maybe the guy who came to look was a complete idiot and thought it must be true just cause someone said it. Glad things are workin out so far! I am gonna be trading places very soon as I am totally fed up with the BS we are puttin up with...

 

Well, the requirement for hydraulics is a rumour, I think the guy was pulling your chain like you said. I did some digging, and it isn't, but from what I've seen, when companies are busy and needing owner ops, the 'required' equipment can be relaxed, but if its slower, then its mandatory. Seen this with the pro rate issues a few years back now its been put on the back burner, but I bet if it slows down, they will be checking for the 'apportioned plates' lol
