The 813 is essentially a larger version of the M35 deuce. I cut my teeth on
the deuce but I ended up going to the 813 because it has the 250 cummins,
power steering, and can carry a whole bunch more. Depending on how much they
want for the 813, having logging type work would make me tend to want the
larger truck. The knuckle crane would make me have to have it. The deuce is
easier to maneuver on landings and spurs because it is smaller. Hell, buy em
both, everyone needs more crap to maintain!
I can e-mail some pictures if you like
