Having read a bunch and looked at a few different tractors, I'm leaning in the direction of a Mahindra Max 26XL, HST. Looked at the smaller, say Kubota BX series, but just not enough ground clearance.
My property: Five acres, slightly sloped,heavily treed on four acres.
Lots of woody underbrush & ferns.
Lots of downed trees, some solid and some rotting.
Lots of smaller 1-4" trees to clear out. Will have a pro come in and clear the larger trees for a building site.
Want to clear and build paths, level parking areas, etc.
The Mahindra Max 26XL looks like it's got enough size to pull trees, etc and still fit in the forest.
$16,300 with FEL & 5' box scraper.
$22,300 adding backhoe.
Don't know if I'll use the backhoe $6,000 worth!?
