Is it stated anywhere why they went with this design over a traditional wheel model or treads? This has to be an economical design choice and I am curious what it might be…
Michael Gusek; the answer, my friend, lies in the question of PR with ecological footprint for harvesting.
The most recent trend in logging designs has been “zero impact” goal machine design. Treads and wheels leave far more effective ‘footprint’ than does a “foot” device.
@iconrad no, you are wrong – it has been funded by .fi govt funds for high-techs from 2000, as it had some potential military applications (where having wheels or treads might cost a life someone) apart from green footprint. it had been sold in 2002 to John Deer as Finnish subsidiary.
Nice design, my friend.Is this one unique or a free theme? Iam fresh in this total internet blogging thing and want to start my personal blog with wp. I like you blog theme and the subjects you offer. Is there any similar design out there? I don’t want to replicate or imitate your blog. Imitating is for chinese ;-). Compliments for germany

I’m sure a determined group of ewoks could still disable one of these.
Only if they have a Wookie to help.
@javan afaik, this was not after “big dog” it was before…
