sleepy is an unknown quantity at this point
Im on my 2nd rental of the dingo. Its 155 per day. It comes with the complete trailer with all the goodies but they tack on an extra 50 bucks for every attachment you use.
Land plane , Auger, trencher, forks, Jack hammer. No, 4 in 1 bucket though , thats a bummer.
Its hard to operate the bucket and the steering at one time. I wish it had a jotstick instead of the dumb bar control for the tracks. Mabye the one I rent is out of wack but it was a carple tunnel nightmare to navigate the tracks whilst manipulating the bucket.
I cant see the 25 grand out lay right now. Where is the 6 in 1 blade? do they make one? you dig a trench and have to side shift the fill back in? Thats just bunk! Ive seen the mt 52 but they dont have a trailer for it and they wont provide a ramp to stick it in the truck so I dont rent it for the fact of an extra trailer charge. (go go mck ace hardware lol)<rental place!
Im used to a case 450 crawler with a 4 in 1 clam. I could manipulate that peice to put a needle on a record player.
I guess I like the lock and load of the gears. (+ brakes) Dont you love rental yards!!!!!!!!!! We are smater than they are and they treat us like jo shmo! (ohh im ranting) Wheres the rant and rave topic here stone? lol and its monday!
