I have a 7' roadboss WITH ROLLER on my KubL4330 ...43 horses and it does well on my long, steep gravel drive. It is a hard pull but 4wd low works fine. The roller has a hydraulic adjust and works like a tail wheel or gauge wheel during grading. When rolling, the whole weight of the roadboss is on the roller (a lot of weight) which means the roller works quite well.

I also have the toothed cutting blade, which works well for the shale I have in places. One drawback to the toothed blade is that sticks (and occasionally stones) get caught and gouge the driveway. While my tractor might be happier with a 6'er, it would not cover my turfs. I have top n tilt, and sith such a heavy load the they want to sag (leak down) a little over time.
