Skid Steer Mulcher?

[BethesdaEC]

In our area(northern NY) you can rent a SS with the forestry head for $2500/wk.If you have never run one;IT'S NOT FUN! A new unit a couple of years ago was $128,000.

I was having fantasies of playing with a skid steer, but it sound like I should just contract this out. I almost had my wife sold on the idea.

I just had mulcher work done and 6 acres should not take over two,(three at most) days.16 hours @ $150 would be $2400. I think you would lose much more than that on a buy-use-resale deal.

Might get some more info if you posted this in the land clearing forum, it is full of people who own and run mulchers.

I didn't even know that there was a land clearing forum. Thanks, I will look into it.
