I just purchased 10 acres in central Illinois. To give you some perspective, it is 330 ft of frontage and about the first two acres is cleared and then it goes about 8 acres back in nice hard woods. Approximately 6 acres back into the property, the ground slopes down gradually to a nice 6-8 ft wide creek that winds through the woods, and then the property elevates to the back few acres. This is something my wife and I have been looking for, for quite some time and are planning to build a home in a couple of years. I'll be making and maintaining a 6 foot wide hiking path through the woods and a bridge to cross the creek. I'll have some brush cutting regularly in one area of the property plus all the yard and landscaping work, winter plowing, lane making, ect. I told my wife that I was going to need to get a tractor. She agreed and said, we'll go to Sears and get you a nice Craftsman. I chuckled and said, "I have been doing some reading on this informative discussion forum for Kubota tractors online", and then handed her the BX2200 brochure I had recently obtained from the Kubota Dealer locally(after I sat on the thing and wanted to take it home). She said do you need something that big?? We had a short discussion and I got the necessary blessing. Thanks for all the info. I will be hanging out in here more often, upon my purchase.
