Definitely engineered to be a multi-tasker! 👍

THAT is a very good question. I see Huddigs being auctioned or on used machinery websites. However, all of them says "Call for Pricing". 😅😅

It's not an exact prices but a guesstimate, a Tigon would be around 800k+ aust. They are not cheap.

I am sorry you feel that way. What about the VO that you find annoying? Is it the tonality, pace, voice, or ... ?

Thank you for the comment. Which machine was your favorite?

Thank you for the comment. But I am not quite sure what you meant... The Huddig needs an operator to work it at job sites. Don't think remote control / automation is available. Unless I am mistaken.

@@EpicMach-home You can use all functions from a remote control

@@Darkness-ng6jh I did not know remote control is an option. Thank you for sharing!

@@EpicMach-home I think, his point is that in the video one can see the operator using the remote control. But one can't see what functions can be controlled remotely. Having all functions at your fingertips from outside the cab is something people might need to see in order to understand. Hence a view with operator and machine in the same shot, while the machine is doing non-trivial tasks might have made it more clear.

Thank you for the comment. Are you referring to a specific feller buncher model? For "mountain goat", are you talking about the Tigercat skidder?

@@EpicMach-home any brand of fellers bunchers Tigercat John Deere whereas skidders are concerned John Deere and Tigercat are equipped with custom from G n R track solution a brand called KMC have tracks like a Dozer caterpillar skidders have strange high level tracks

Wow~ such detailed information. You must be an expert in the area. Learned something new today. What would be your favorite forestry machine then?

@@EpicMach-home no I just love learn and gather information about things powerful and all terrains machines are my passion

@@viseshseernam39 Got it! Similarly, we have a passion for all types of heavy machinery. If you have any machine(s) that you would like featured, please let us know!

Oh yeah? Thanks for letting me know. My understanding is that Huddig started from 760, 860... and now the 1370 (the 7th generation now). Or are you talking about something else?

@@EpicMach-home something thé huddig Can Do things thanks a regular backhoe cannot do it is like it came from thé future

For sure. The Huddig is a specialty machine. That's why I decided to do a feature video. Do you know any other interesting and niche machines?

I have driven many different types of machines, and Huddig is the best! No other is not even close!!! But too expensive

Thank you for the idea/suggestion. I had fun researching the video. 😉 Did you find the "easter eggs" in the video?

@@EpicMach-home yes i did :D ty for putting them in

Thank you again for the suggestions. If you have more, I am all ears.

Awesome! I am glad you enjoyed the video. Which part was your favourite?

Thank you for the words of encouragement! 🙂

Thank you for the feedback.

😂 What machine made you say "hell yea"? haha

Whoa! 4000+ hp? Are you talking about the Peterson 5170 D or E grinder? It's between 1050-1125 hp according to the manufacturer though. Is your specific machine modified?

@@EpicMach-home 5710 D tier 2 Peterson grinder. C27 twin turbo Cat Power plant. It will eat a 40" diameter log without braken and sweat.

@@anthonyweigand6377 Oh, I am sure the 5710 D can do what you say and more. 🙂 Just reading the specs is very satisfying: "Powered by a Tier IV Caterpillar C27 1050HP (772 kW) engine or an optional C32 1125hp (839 Kw) engine, the 5710D provides the highest power to weight ratio of any Peterson grinder." What other beastly machine do you operate?

Spec wise, both AF11 and CR11 are very similar. Only time will tell which company's engineering design is superior after some usage. Which one would you choose?

Thank you for the comment to help us improve the channel.

New Holland makes some serious agricultural machines. Which one is your favorite?

@@EpicMach-home my favourite will have to be the combine we run irl. New Hollands CX5.80. it runs a 7.3m header and a 8300 litre grain tank. it works well for us and the cab (similar to the higher cr combines) are amazing. control stick so comftable to use amazing seat amazing monitor and the black interior dosent hurt your eyes and just makes you feel better then lets say a grey coloured cab. It is also amazing of how it runs, in uk for 2023 we had mainly flaterned crops from rain but this amazing machine went through it like it was nothing

The CX5.80 sure looks like a capable machine. agriculture.newholland.com/en-ie/europe/products/combine-harvesters/cx5-cx6-stage-v Kind of a shrunk-down version of the CR11. 😂 From your experience, would it be much different to run it compared to the CR11?

@@EpicMach-home na cr11 by far is better we only have 550 acres so have no need at all for anything bigger then a cx5.80

@@moocow0014 Agreed. Right tool/machine for the right job. Bigger is not always better. lol What other NH machines do you have on your farm?

They are not for small farmers for sure...

These are typically meant for larger operations with lots of acreages to cover. Which one is your favorite?

Full-throttle logging is more likely. Which machine is your favourite?

For sure! Which harvester is your favorite?

It is quite satisfying to watch this machine work. Which one is your favorite?

Comments like yours are motivation to continue producing videos. What category of heavy machinery do you enjoy the most?

Thanks! They sure are engineering marvels.

It's mesmerizing to watch these machines work.

Thanks for the comment to let me know!

From human labour intensive towards more and more autonomous machines.

A great analogy for the man in the machine. Not sure if the forest is too happy though. 😅

Mother Nature's cleanup crew is a very good analogy! 😂

All inquiries can be directed to: simoncwt05@gmail.com Thank you!

These machines are definitely incredible. They help us build modern civilization!

To summarize, operating these machines is fun! 🙂

Thank you for the comment. Do you mean for the video to have more footage of the machines doing work?

Thank you for the kind words. We will both work hard and persevere! 👍

👍

Some of the motor graders shown in the video have been in service since the 1970's! Talk about longevity.

Why did you guess this, are you a smart person?

@@far_outlookHaha, it's not a guess. This information came up while doing research for the video.

Hey Hyundai R450 was working hard!

Yes, do you know how much that machine costs?@@EpicMach-home

@@far_outlook According to MarketBook.ca, The R450 costs between CAD 75,000 to 100,000+ depending on the year and condition.

Thank you for the kind words.

Thank you for the comment. Please feel free to provide constructive criticism so we can improve.

Thank you for the kind words! Drones and autonomous robots are becoming more common place in agriculture for sure.

CAT 6090 is definitely one of the most popular and well-known.

Can't agree more! These machines allow safe tree harvesting.

Happy 2024 and thank you for the comment. The video is about wood harvesting machines. The thumbnail is very much relevant to the content albeit a little exaggerated. 😉

You can come to me to clearly understand this truth

Thank you for the kind words! The Dazzini saw is an incredible machine and definitely dangerous.
