    Ok Paul.. I said, "Hon comere' and check this video out".

    After watching it she says," Why don't we get one of those?"..So I give her a price range and she says," we can sell the skid steer and the backhoe and buy one right?" .. I stay quiet while she thinks it through. Then she says, "We'll need to get all the trees we want gone removed first"... (a couple seconds go by) " and we need to get the rocks dug up first too."

    She walks away and sez," Go get it done" (meaning get all the trees and rocks removed quickly)

    On a related note.. I found something cool on craigslist. Luckily I was the first one to respond.

    It's an Agri-fab two wheel tow behind trailer that has a 3pt hitch on the back end. It came with a 4' 3pt blade and a 4' 3pt rake .

    The 3pt adapter has a electric winch, with a remote control, to raise and lower the 3pt attachments while in motion. Works with a ATV or garden tractor.

    Once I get it set up behind the cub cadet I'll take a few pictures.. I'm hoping this will do the horse arena grooming.. but it won't do it a nice as the Ventrac..

    Well...you could get an ABI Arena Rascal Pro...
    Arena Rascal® Pro Best Selling ATV UTV Arena Drag


    This will not work very well for me, because INDOORS have CORNERS...

    I was looking at that very tool Paul. It would work fine for me...but, I just spent a tiny fraction of what that beauty costs, for something that should do the same job..(crossed fingers here)

    I would like the green work horse that's doing the pulling.

    Well...the big deal with riding arenas...is the FOOTING and the BASE...the trick is to level AND fluff up the footing but NEVER EVER DISTURB THE BASE...

    And that JD Gator starts at $9999.00...NEW, before the add-ons...
