I’ll tell you what man…
I bought a lt2000 craftsman little riding mower when I lived more in the city for 850, came with a de thatcher. I bought a little dump cart. It will haul anything.
I’ve moved several cord of cut wood, several tons of logs, when I was building steps down a hill it hauled several tons of gravel. When I built my beds it hauled several tons of dirt. Hell, I pulled a couple dozen t posts with it around my fence line when I was starting to build the fence. I did use it to mow the pasture this year and it worked fine I went a little slower because I didn’t want to kill it.
All it asks for is some oil and a filter every fall when I put her away.
Actually I’m cutting an almost dead Ash down today and I’ll be bringing it out to haul that to the pile. If I didn’t have a gravely with a blade I’d get a blade for the rider and plow the drive with it.
I’ve seen tow behind for dragging arenas, and for grading the driveways.
I’m telling ya it’s a little beast!
