Well with access to 17 acres to cut on thats not mine I want to be as low impact as i can be. I also dont want to beat my truck up to bad. There are already some trails and paths but most are to narrow for my F-250 I could widen them and i will probally need to widen the main road in but thats mainly brush and some limbs. This plot of land abuts my property so whatever I get I dont need it to be road worthy. Id love a tractor and it really is the right tool for the job but I just cant justify the cost. ATV's both 2 and 4 wheel drive people must think they are made from gold with what they are asking in this area.
Id want something with a short and narrow wheel base so this is what I have in mind feel free to add or make suggestions. Budget less then $1000 more like the $500 range. Most of what I have in mind I will have to have a trailer in tow but I have a nice little 4X8 already with 3 foot sides. I can also use what I ever I end up getting as a skidder and pull whole logs backto the main road or right into my back yard and then process them there.
