Landpride Grading Scraper review GS2584

[aeblank]

Thanks for the tips.
I mostly have "hoopties" that I want to get rid of. Long wavelength humps. The LPGS was starting to knock them down and spreading them out, but I need more time on it (my issue, of course). I can add a bucket scrape on the humps too.
Our seasonal road gets potholes something horrible when it rains for several days in a row. So that's a completely different set of issues. LPGS should shine through those (tear them out, fill them in).

Sorry about the hijack.

Since we're hijacked, I'll report on my GS1572. Picked it up yesterday. Very nice. I was worried that I made a big mistake by not getting the heavier GS2572 for my 1/2 mile of gravel and 43 hp. Not to worry; this thing is STOUT!! I can see very little difference from the GS25 series in features although I'm sure the GS25s have heavier steel components. I doubt I will be able to break or bend this one.

Was very pleased to find that it is fully quick-hitch compatible and ready to go with just adding two lower pin bushings. They prominently advertise that the GS25s are QH compatible, not so prominent on the GS15s. Same with the reversible and replaceable skid shoes.

Little peeves; my blades were set ALL the way up, which is kind of how I expect for shipment, so not really any problem there. But an inexperienced novice buyer might hook it up and start dragging it around wondering why it's not cutting at all.

One of the large Land Pride decals on the side is applied crooked. And I am an **** engineer. Sent Land Pride support an e-mail requesting a replacement so that I (and they) can be proud of my Land PRIDE's appearance as well as its function. They responded (very quickly!) to have my dealer order one and file a warranty claim for it. I really hate to put my dealer out for the paperwork. Land Pride evidently is adamant about ONLY working through their dealers!

My biggest complaint about my GS1572 is that it's packed away (on end, for the winter) in the garage and I need a half hour to dig it out.
