Looking at both u it’s. I plan to split about 6-7 cords a year for wood furnace maybe more. Bear with me I’m coming from a built rite wood processor which is thought but honestly I am ok with a splitter. I can prob split a lot in a couple weekends. Both units are around 5k. Rugged is 5k new and I found an American am25hh for 5k used with a Honda 240motor. Just looking for some input
