Has anyone seen the new Qcatch 8400 chute?  I looked at the WW/Stampede and liked it, but saw a lot of the issues mentioned above.  Then I gravitated to the Sioux Steel because it's cheaper than Stampede, has many of the same features, and has a little smoother/simpler operation.  But then I saw...

Anyone have any thoughts on which of the big 3 have the strongest gas engine these days?

Thinking about getting a 2011 truck, probably a Silverado 3500.  Would love to have the new Duramax, but am wondering with diesel prices and the new diesel exhaust fluid requirements, is it still worth it to spend the extra $8k on a diesel?  On paper, the mileage and pulling power are supposed...

I've always seen the steel halters, but have never known how to actually use one.  I guess I've not needed one bad enough yet to have to learn.  Can anyone explain how they work? or how to use them? Thanks!

Anyone ever used a Titan or know someone who has?

I have been searching for a squeeze chute and was hoping for some help from Planeteers on what you like and dislike.  I have priced a Titan West chute w/palp cage and really seem to like the way it handles.  My vet uses a For-Most and I've had a few people recommend them to me as well. A couple...
