    Shit if you want big there is a good 30t Doosan for sale on Turners for approx $120k with 5000 hours on the clock, that would pull some stumps and move some dirt.

    Us 1948 models take a bit of maintenance. Ive had a bless'd run really. A new valve and clean pipes will see me pull out and pass Nimrod going up the dirtiest spur. Thanks for the best wishes folks.

    Ok fair enough you are set on it. My suggestion is to look for one with a blade on it. If doing any steep work, they really come into their own. I have seen fence lines cut that a digger without a...
