[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 561352, member: 4362"] May not. Don't know your market. I clear anywhere from 1500 - 2000 acres each year. I agree the price of everything has gone up but even the most expensive vendor here is charging $275/acre. My cost this year for logged land is $220/acre up $30/acre from last year. One machine will clear at least 10 acres per day which costs me $2200 per day or about $13000 a week. The point I'm trying to make is there is no way a rubber tired backhoe can clear this much land. If it could, I assure you I'd be doing it already. If there is anyone who can clear this more land than a D8 for the cost of a backhoe needs to contact me if they want I job. I'll keep him busy.
