Today was the first time I used the 3016 for skidding . Previously I had a JD 750. The difference between the two is night and day. I was done in half the time. Where a 60' oak 18"dbh would take 4 or 5 trips with the Deere, the 3016 took two. One for the trunk, and more amazingly, one for the crown. It just kept pulling. Loader strength has also doubled. I was initially concerned about something on the tractor such as some fel hydraulic lines were in jeopardy but came out unscathed this day. My woods are very dense and to be able to pull crowns out whole is a giant time saver. I'm tickled pink with the thing.
