I have been pretty close to pulling the triger on a 35hp tractor for my 40 acres in Washington State. It is new property, in bad shape. Lots of blakberries and tree stumps on slopes and steep slopes. Now that winter is setting in, the land is dying off and I can see things much more clearly. I think there is a real need for a dozer, and probably a years worth of work (assuming a couple of hours a week).
Anyone ever buy a dozer? Any suggestions or comments? I will need a tractor, for sure, but this may be an additional same time purchase, or a first purchase this spring, then in the fall a tractor and unload the dozer...
My thinking on this is that a tractor is not going to be stable enough, nor powerful enough to get stumps out, level the ground and push brush around....
