Hoping to take delivery of my "new" 1992 Ford 3930 4x4 tractor with two rear remotes this weekend. Had new ag tires put on & turned out, fluids changed at local dealer. Back of rear wheels measures 94" across.
Going to use to keep 17 acres cut plus 1/10 mile + gravel drive maintained. Land is 95 to 99% cleared. Land has large hill in center where house is being built. There are a few trees on side of hill and perimeter of property. Driveway is approximately 12' wide.
Read tons of posts on both box blades, rotary cutters, and rear finish mowers. Now comes the time to make decision.
If I go with box blade to maintain drive, what size and features? Driveway has already shown signs of washing due to rain.
Land was bush hogged twice last summer but has, since winter, weeds stayed relatively short. Remaining weed "stalks" on ground are hard to walk thru even with boots. Would like to keep cut short but cannot decide if I should buy bush hog or rear finish mower. Any help on choice, size or features greatly appreciated.
