So the Dirt Dog is 1150 for the 6' and 1250 for the 6.5' with a whopping $310 shipping to a terminal.
Is that really the route i should go? I was originally just planning on spending 600-700 bucks.... so this would be more than double. Would it be that much more effective?
Thanks!
I know that this was a regional thing, but back when box blades with hydraulic actuated rippers didn't even exist, any and all professionals used ROBB's on their tractors. Never, not one time had I ever seen a professional using a std type box blade. That tells me something right there.
Nothing wrong with any of the units that are available. Some work better than others. Some cost more than others. If you get mismatched, as in the tractor is to big (implement breaks)or the implement is to big for the tractor (tractor struggles) your performance suffers. A LOT of people live with it for whatever reason (usually don't know any different). Ultimately it comes down to the person paying the bill and if the additional $$$ spent is worth having a better quality implement. Sometimes it is and other times not. That is your call.
Good luck.
