My Ponsse Scorpion and wood chipper have well over 100 hours on my goldcrest map. Maintenance and depreciation steady out at around 70 hours on any machine it seems. Ive taken many a machine over the 70 hour mark. Also have a healthy 80 plus hours on both my Liebherr L538 and Tatra Terrno ITR truck on that same map.

Really hoping the excavator BSM is working on can take place of the Ponsse tree harvester. Be great to rack up the hours on the excavator harvesting trees, loading wood chips, and grinding stumps.

lol, I was so proud of my 31hrs on my Scorpion.
Have you cleared the map of original trees?
or are you planting/harvesting your own?

I planted 4700 trees, the game started crashing, I've been clearing original trees since. I'm leaving my planted forests for last.

I only harvest the tall full grown map trees from the forested areas and replant with the sapling to grow again. I dont touch any low growth map trees that way it leaves the forest looking normal instead of no new growth and all fully grown trees that look exactly the same.

It keeps things ongoing instead of clearing the entire place of trees.

I to have planted all of the starting fields with saplings and when they are full grown the game lags so much anytime you look at the growth. If you only look at the trunks its manageable but the growth lags the game something horrible. Plus id rather be in the forest working and not some perfect field.

I just started on Who Dat Who Der ranch about a week or two ago and i continually harvest corn (getting ready to sell 1m liters of corn today, haha Lord help me.) and my harvesters already have 8.5 hours on them. my quadtracs are catching up too. i would think its going to go up much more as i have no room to upgrade and im buying more fields with the money i make off of the corn. So, who knows, by the end of next week i could have 20 hours on my equipment.... i also actually had to fill them up with gas too. what a shocker.

Like squashing them down with the bucket and then driving over the corpse for population control, right? :biggrin2: :biggrin2: :biggrin2:
Cause any other type of maintaining attempt will end up them growing in numbers in not time :mrgreen:

I just bought a skid steer on TWC to maintain my sheep. I like their compact size and great maneuverability. I tried the Lely Juno, but couldn't get it to work.

No wonder why you've started a skid steer course :biggrin2: :biggrin2:
And what was I claiming? Being better at skid steer than you? :hmm: :hmm:
I might need to take that back if you don't plan using it on me some other time :lol:
