Bellweather,my bx with a trac-vac has been my answer for leaves for some time now.I would never go back to the RAKE for sure.If you shop around for a used one in the the off season they can be had for aound $600 bucks, add a boot to fit your tractor or if your handy adapt the one that comes with your used trac vac and never look back. Stay with 5 hp or larger with 8" hose's and you should be good to go.Add mulcher blades to your deck for a more finer cut. I live on 12 acres my house sits in the middle of 7 acres of oak,hickory + some other hard woods the leaves come from all directions I live your dream for sure. Good luck.
