Very nice. That is in the same weight class as my Rhino 950 - 96" - 1100#. Only mine is all manual. When I upgraded to my Kubota
M6040 - I got a Land Pride RB3596 @ 566#. It proved to be simply too light to cut into my mile long gravel driveway in the summer. After spring rains my driveway set up just like concrete.
I know what you had to pay for that thing - Lord - when you get into class 2 and or 3, the price of implements hits the moon. I've been out here in the boondocks now for 36+ years. You know - in all that time - not one single implement of any size, shape or stripe that would be of any use to me. I put my Land Pride rear blade on local Craig's List and it sold - cash - high dollar - within one hour after hitting the list. Wish I had half a dozen more to sell.
So....... don't feel alone. I just learned looooong ago - bite the bullet and buy it big and buy it new.
The learning curve for a rear blade is fairly long - BUT - if you do as I did and get a hydraulic top link - it sure makes learning a whole lot quicker and easier. With a hydraulic top link - its adjustment on the go - no stop, dismount, twist-twist-twist, get back up, try it - stop again, dismount - - you get the idea.
With a hydraulic top link you do not have to accept - "well, darn, that's good enough". You just keep tapping that lever and you can tune the new rear blade into to a fine cutting implement.
