A COMPACT Leaf Blower That PACKS A PUNCH! BillyGoat P2000 Stand On Leaf Blower Demo

- Today Rob and I are taking out the BillyGoal P2000 stand on leaf blower for its maiden voyage and seeing how it performs with a quick leaf cleanup at one of our HOA's.
This P2000 BillyGoat leaf blower is the in between unit from their popular walk behind units, to their full throttle Z3000 and X3000 stand on leaf blowers. This unit runs in the $8,000 range, pushes over 3,500 CFM and clocks in at around 150mph when it's blowing leaves, how cool is that.
This could be a great in between unit for those of you guys who want something a little more powerful than a walk behind, but maybe not as expensive as a dedicated unit as the popular X3000 and Z3000 units.
Thanks again to BillyGoat for partnering with us (sponsored video) to share this new leaf blower with you guys. Have you guys purchased one of BillyGoat's stand on leaf blowers? What do you guys think of this mechanical budget friendly P2000? Let us know in the comments down below!

I got the Ferris FB 3000 for a year and was the best money I ever spent, end up using it all year round
Serious question…. How do you use it all year. Blowing off parking lots ?
@@sike800 yes, I only do commercial properties mostly Wendy's restaurants, no more backpack blower, no more waiting for guys to show up to work,
Boys and their toys - this is the coolest thing I've seen in ages!!! When he gets more experience under his belt with this thing, he is going to be a monster with it!!!!! Big thumbs up 👍👍👍
Looks like a great unit for the money spent, honestly not much more then you can easily spend a couple good walk behinds but way more productive. I'm in love with it
I just got a whole lot more interested in one of these as I had no clue they had side discharge chutes on both sides (I pictured long reversing stretches to work leaves in one direction) Thanks guys...this is why I watch your channel!
“Rockin the hurricane”… good one
61 and retired from landscaping... Man times have changed, you guys got some cool toys! 😄👍
that unit is pretty freakin sweet! Love the videos! Keep up the great work!
Hey Brian, absolutely love the content and your podcasts. You have inspired me as a 20 year old to start a lawn care business and quit the 9-5 (strategically). Thank you for all you do!! Also looking into the ball of wax training 😁 Keep it up!!
I just bought the Z3000 about two weeks ago! Totally game changer. What use to take me 2 hours of blowing leaves now takes me 20 mins. That machine will clean up things good it will blow sticks and logs. If your thinking of getting one I highly recommend it. You won’t be disappointed at all!
most of the big units could blow cinder blocks. no joke.
My fb3000 is good at flinging dog crap in the woods too
Do you think it would be overkill for parking lot clean ups? We lay tons of sand in the winter
@@ufcin60 works great for large parking lots. We maintain a bunch of shopping centers does very well
Nice video review ….. I have a smaller/older unit and it moves a ton of leaves in a hurry ….. and that Billy Goat looks like a great machine!! Continued success!
That's impressive!
Awesome piece of equipment....👍
Can’t wait to get one. Nice vid
I love my Scag Windstorm but I could see that machine being very useful if trailer space and gates are an issue. Once you get comfortable on the machine you’ll be wearing a back pack blower and running the controls one handed so you can get the hard to reach areas. Might want to try and air the tires down to get more tread contacting the ground for better traction.
Byron, i bought one of these, the tires are just too big for the rims. I purchased another set of tires (same size) the tread was 1"narrower and they fit like a glove. It wouldn't go up the ramp into my box truck, now no issues. Sent a message to ferris, they are looking into it.
Great video Brian, that is a handy unit! Can wait to see it more when the leaves are really falling! That looks like the same motor that is on the debris loader.
Thats got some power for how small it is. I got the Ferris FB2000 Last spring and it is worth every penny. It helps get cleanups done and blows a ton of leaves.
Awesome video bro 👍
feels so good i'm on last cuts of this years season
I love this thing
It is one awesome machine. Just like you said "think of the time savings!"
Dude so satisfied
Was offered a Scag Windstorm with adjustable directional nozzle and after seeing this just may have to reconsider going to purchase! Thanks for the video. 👍👊🤟
It’s insane, bought one this season. Get it
wow that thing rips and that double go pro shot was sick
Holy crap. I’ve got like 40 trees in my yard plus surround by a Forrest. Thanksgiving week every year I spend a couple of hours mowing, blowing, and raking leaves. Wish that machine didn’t cost so much. I’d only need it 10 minutes a year. Lol. Too much fun right there.
That is a hell of a machine
Cool machine!
I know we don't get the same type of snow y'all get, but I'm curious if it could clear the 2 or 3" like a backpack blower does??
Nice!!
Agree with you on the muffler. I feel like a vertical cylinder style like is on a lot of single cylinder horizontal engines tucked away behind the blower housing would have been a better choice.
Awesome machine for the small operator that has big properties to clean up. We use our x3's in the spring and summer cleaning of drive ways of grass, alot faster. If the crews ever have to scatter the grass they can cut that in half.
Pretty impressive output. Yeah, I'm with you, first thing I noticed was how far the muffler sticks out. Even though its got a protective cage around it but still. And the blower itself runs full time I think? There's no clutch to engage/disengage the impeller for when you are transporting the unit under its own power? They probably did that for price points. Looking forward to seeing more video of it in action during the thick of leaf season.
Used a X3 for commercial work doing 20 acre apartment complex’s definitely worth a buy if you have the work…try wearing a backpack blower once you get used to riding around it’ll help out with getting everything. Nice work!
These direct drive fan units are awesome! When I get my business fired up it’s definitely on my list. Expensive but a worthy investment. Thank you
We run a z3000 going on 2nd year and it works even on wet leaves.
I don’t forsee the muffler getting clipped personally, the CFM is crazy!
Good video
That is sweet, I have 2 ACRES I have to blow leaves every year, and I am beginning to age out and I am having a hard time hefting the heavy leaf blower on my back, this machine would save my back immensely, I will look into this,
Hey my brother from the lawn that leaf loader is nice it's to bad that they don't include a wood chipper attachment for the Billy goat.
Lol I didn’t realize you had one in the works. They work great for the “budget”
Foreman rob approved, on my way to purchase one now 💯
That's a nice little unit! Owning the pro-force my only complaint is the footprint in the trailer
Nice. I like it. I wonder how it would do on steeper hills. Of course I wouldn’t mind seeing the budget (lower end) price a little less then $8000, guess we will see what it actually comes in at. Thanks for the video
Thanks for sharing the price up front! Residential user here but I like to see what the pros are using. Cool, but for me I'll stick with the Redmax 8500 for my 3 acres.
How much do you charge for that cleanup or leaf cleanup in general? All my other prices people accept at a higher rate than my leaf clean up but I really don't think I'm charging too much
Seems like it would pay for its self.
Brian have you ever think of getting a digital police scanner for when your snow plowingto hear any car accidents so you can avoid there area
I wanna know what happens if you take some tubing and route the end of the blower unit where the air comes out of directly to the engine’s intake…
There's so many things I didn't like about that machine. I ended up going with the Scag Windstorm, it's a much nicer unit in my opinion.
two totally different machines
Wish they made a windstorm jr. Just dont have the room in the truck for the big boy. That thing could blow over an Abrams tank.
I wonder how this would work against some light snow.
Brian,, With this unit, Are you also kinda like dethatching the grass? I just got a Stihl BR 800-c and when I use it on grass for the leaves it seems like I am leaving the grass and ground completely free from debris and it is only grass growing up and dirt that is left behind. I know the Br-800 is not a dethatcher and neither is the Hurricane but it seems like you are accomplishing the same thing as if you were dethatching.
The go-pro has been a game changer for my videos. Imagine doing video with your full frame camera on a DJI gimbal and you get a go-pro! The media mod sucks, I tossed mine. Also, machine mounting is still too bumpy to make quality video so I hat clip mount mine now and it’s beautiful footage. And it’s waterproof for those videos in the rain. Did I mention the gimbal is sick? When I first got into go-pro I was very annoyed by it till I figured I’d quit complaining and just become an expert at using it. Now I’m a big time believer it’s my one camera to rule them all.
now that's Impressive your going to have to re think of a new hr rate for that machine
Imagine a leaf plow hooked to it.
Im considering buying a billy goat for parking lot spring cleanups. Do you think this 2000 could handle it?
Totally. If you want front blow out, go big and get the X3.
Brian I told you this last year to go to a ground blower I save so much time and less men pays for itself
Foreman Rob approved
Maybe point that blower up into the trees next time..
there just isn’t enough of leaves for this machine to coral.
Two ppl are needed for better coverage and cleanup
Great addition to any set up 👌🏻
How do you push the leaves in the wood line and not pick them up
That’s what we do here for any property with a wood line.
Hey, another great video! Keep it up!
This is both awesome and hilarious with all the gas powered leaf blower nuisances in the news
That unit at weingartz is 9100 otd..deff use the left side more than the right the power is more dominant that's the way the engine spins..its a nice piece..but of a gas hog..frame is super rigid which makes front wheels hard to turn without doing a burnout on the lawn
How much do your normally charge for maintenance of the HOA?
Several hundred for this one.
I have the fb3000 since last year and just added the windstorm to the line up this year, id say save up a little more and get the biggest one, 8k is a lot of money for a 18hp stand on when the little wonder has a 18hp blower for 3k that’s not a stand on but you’re basically paying 5k to stand on it. I paid 10k for the windstorm with the 37hp engine and it has a directional nozzle, next year I’m going to trade in the Ferris for another windstorm. You can turn off the fan, which you can’t on the Ferris. Keeps blowing even when you rev it down. And the directional nozzle is so much better than just picking a side, you get full 180 degrees with the scag
I demoed the Billy Goat P2000, X3000 and Scag windstorm last year and while not perfect I think the windstorm is the best value. The only issue for me is the weight. It sinks in and makes ruts in soft turf
@@williamkean3456 I have both and I’d say they’re about equal in weight, maybe the scag might dig in a little more but it’s much more stable in my opinion
The p2000 is quite a bit lighter but no where near the power. It is also not great on hills. The windstorm is almost as good as my v ride (very similar) on hills. I will be getting the scag as soon as I can find one.
@@williamkean3456 yeah I wouldn’t recommend the 2000 to anyone tbh, I wasn’t even keeping that one in the equation whatsoever
Can I get a walk behind mower with a quick attach blower?
That would be cool but I’m not sure how you would set that up sorry
Pretty cool. Get Toro to send the blower for the Multiforce and demo it for us. What's one more storage unit. Lol
That would be a dope opportunity
I have the toro blower and the hurricane z3 blower
Check out my videos
Brian did you already give the trimmers away?
Oh yeah, gosh 2 months ago now
@@BriansLawnMaintenance Oof. I missed it I guess. 😅
Need a Brian's 10 lol. 👊👊💯💯
California: ban blowers
Billy Goat: hold my gas can
so does briggs own ferris and billy goat? this unit is a hood twin to the ferris machine. needs a donaldson filter and that muffler is like a gigantic mole on a pretty face gheesh!
They're all owned by Briggs.
Oh yea that machine is what u need to do serious leaves in a lil while
When you adding the leaf plow?
I have really been thinking about it!
@@BriansLawnMaintenance which one?
We really need to know how the multi force leaf plow works.
How much do u charge for that I’m Considering getting one it’s going to be so much faster don’t want to make less money on my cleanups
We are still learning ourselves, but it replaces 1-2 people so we try to average this machine at $75-$125 an hour on site.
@@BriansLawnMaintenance I ended up getting the windstorm should be getting it next weekish nothing on showroom floor here in nh
@@BriansLawnMaintenance the lawn care life in mowssouri has a good vid on windstorm vs x 3000 that was how I decided
Get ahold of rich and demo the scag windstorm with the 37hp vanguard
Good god. Lucky
Just a demo lol
That’s amazing just save 4 hrs of work
That blower is $9200 in west Michigan
My stand on mower blows the leaves almost as far as this machine plus it mulches them up while I'm blowing them, this blower would be nice in a huge parking lot but anything else is just a was of money and time
you only has the smol one? 😕
Billy goat is letting him borrow it ots the newest addition to their lineup. Honestly to get you in the door for rider performance for about what you could pay for 2 self propelled walk behind units and easily have way more productivity then 2 guys on walk behinds it's totally worth it
It’s just a demo for CZcams to help share the word about the new unit.
Rack and bagging today
Yooo
That blows!
100 likes before i watched
Wife is watching with me today
My best worker ever.
In my opinion and professional opinion as well.. I will out preform that stand on for much less than the sticker tag with a red max 8500 strapped to my back but that's just my own and professional opinion. Much cheaper in the long run to have 2 guys that know how to blow with equipment than 1 standing on a machine that cost that amount. Pay and find the right employees... thats the task though my friends
No u cant
You’re not factoring in fatigue. After 8 years of back pack blowers and push style wheel blowers I decided I had enough and bought a Scag Windstorm. I haven’t used my wheel blower in 2 leaf seasons and carry a back pack blower a fraction of the time I used to. That allows me to run a faster and more consistent pace which translates into much higher revenue. Oh ya and it won’t call in sick or steal from me like and employee.
I really hope the neighbor's gardener doesn't see this video.
Anyone else watching this sitting in the airport waiting to board their plan to go to lal? Lol
Lol 💯
That's just way too easy!
Lol i wish i had 8g to spend on a blower.
Wanna hook a brother up with 5gs to buy a truck? ;) haha 😄
Scag windstorm is so much better.
I have the 3000, I just wonder why someone would spend all that money and not just buy the 3000. What another 2000 at that point? Just curious not being an ass.
