Of the three 9600's we had, the 94 year was the best. We had a 90 or 91, a 94 and a 95. The first one had a lot of problems breaking walkers in half... The 95 had hydraulic gremlins and problems with the throat and reverser for its entire life but the 94 one kept on walking. It had the 30 foot head and the others had 25's too.
