Hey guys, new to the forum and wanted to say hi. Had a couple questions for those of you who have any pipeline experience. I own my own shop that builds chassis and suspension parts and while business is good, some days it can be a bit hectic keeping up with orders and days off aren't really days off if you know what i mean. With all of the pipeline work in my area, its almost a no brainer to make the jump and go back to more of a "day job". My question for you guys is what is the ideal machine for downhill work? Im a miller guy through and through but im guessing if most of the machines on the line are Lincoln theres most likely a good reason for that. also if i were to go with a Lincoln, what are the differences between the 200s, 300s, cross countrys, ect..? a buddy of mine has a classic 300D for sale in great shape but id like to hear some pros and cons of each before i take it. i havent been around these machines too much to know what to look for. any help is appreciated!!!
Thanks, Jeff

New to the forum. Not sure how or where to ask questions. I have questions about a lincoln classic 300D. I am looking to buy used machine. I have found a machine but it has 9500 hrs on it. Wondering, at how many hours a guy should stay away from one of these machines?
