[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 813071, member: 3162"] Chevy, Ford, or Dodge? I have used several brands and even got to play with automated hydraulic units. I have had to save animals with no chute. Would have liked anything at that time. Even a Toyota beats walking :cboy: Cows will go down in a chute. You need to have a rescue plan when that happens. This is why I like options and lots of lubrication before I get started. If a cow goes down with her head trapped, you can have problems. Especially if you are solo and she is positioned just so. Murphy's laws love to kick my zzz. Some very good cattlemen can tell you some ugly stories. I've been darn lucky with the varieties I use. Think of the " what if's" when you set up whatever you decide on. [/QUOTE]
