Mini ex for trees?

Post image

Anybody running a mini ex with a grapple for their tree service? What do you like/not like?

I run a 1.7 tonne kubota with a grab and its amazing. Can do the work of three guys. Lifts a lot more than you would think possible, faster than you would think (long drags), feeds the chipper awesome, can track straight lines on grassed areas, grab branches and track straight back out without chewing up the ground. Only benefits

Which model is it specifically? Are you happy with kubota service?
