[QUOTE="skyhightree1, post: 1087689, member: 13268"] Tnwalking, I will try to keep up with your questions if I miss one let me know. I cleared 300 acres for one person last year in one job and charged him 1500 per acre due to it being a sealed bid situation. In most cases it is between 2000 - 3000 their is variables such as terrain distance to property etc. I personally think renting would be a waste if you aren't familiar with the equipment as here renting is not cheap its better to buy and practice. I also get what you are saying about repair bills but that wouldn't sell me on renting instead of buying. Denver and I have talked about equipment a couple of times while we don't agree on much I think equipment we both have a good knowledge and experience and probably agree on the type of equipment etc. I also want to add hours truly don't matter I have equipment with over 10k hours works like a champ. You can get a piece of equipment that has 1000 hours on it and abused the he l l out of it and didn't maintenance it and is a bigger piece of junk than a machine with 15k hours. Maintenance records on machines are great I keep them and I'm sure Denver does as well. If you buy at a auction sometimes they have them most often not. [/QUOTE]
