Now that's the coolest tractor truck thingy I've seen in years. Love the way it hoovers up every clipping. German efficiency at its best. Unlike here in the UK they use a clapped out machine with broken guards flinging mess everywhere. Then they just leave it all over the place. Love the 4 rig convoy all working together.
I know right! They way how they all work together so nicely in sync is just amazing. FYI, these machines aren’t German. They’re modified versions of a Dutch self-driving sod injector ‘Vredo vt’.
Nice but why the vacuum? Better for the grassy areas to cut/mulch it instead of wasting money transporting clippings. If they'e going to become compost maybe but for what appears to be rural road ditches this is a waste.
+ShastaPacificRoad I was thinking the same thing, but then as i watched, they take everything, so the must make mulch and re sell it to add revenue to the department, smart if they do, provide low cost product from cleaning up,
+William Glaser Does makes sense if you look at it that way. Of course if they hadn't bought such high-tech equipment in the first place...... then they wouldn't need to collect and sell off the clippings...LOL! I DO like the versatility of the mowers though.
+ShastaPacificRoad I also think that maybe in some areas they would want to keep it neat, with no clippings, out in the country when they cut the dirt and gravel roads all of the clippings litter the road, in the bigger City maybe that's why they use a vacuum. Now i do wonder if they are 4x4 and will they ship me a used one to Colorado, I would use one of them a lot. The look a lot better then the Oshkosh they have, the motor on the Oshkosh sit above the wheels, on these they are between the wheels allowing for many different things.
+William Glaser The low center of gravity looks good but to tie up $$ in power units... Admittedly they can swap out modules but I've priced a few of their modular units and they cost nearly as much as the base power unit...! Where I live in Indiana(and back where I came from in NW Iowa) the mowing is by a batwing or underbody mower in the country with most counties having a dedicated mower for ditches...all mounted on industrial or farm tractors. I can see the fancy-schmancy mowing in town tho except if they take all the clipping for mulch then they also take the weeds too - NOT what I'd want for mulch around seedlings or young tree or possibly garden plants. The woodchipper... just look at Asplundh™ or Davey Tree Experts™(for example) for a better way to deal with tree-trimming.
