It is only a heck of a deal if you are going to use it more than a couple times a year. You can rent a machine a lot of times for the cost of the package.

Not bad.  I paid 18k for mine with 200 hours on it and then bought a box blade and post hole auger. I like that the one you linked to has the QD bucket system. I specifically wanted a model that did not have emission controls on it. Mine was the last year with no emissions. 2012 iirc.

With a trailer also.. pretty good deal.

I assume that it's already hooked on the back of your truck.

The only thing stopping me from buying it it that it has a box mower instead of a mower deck.

Isn't it better for backing into or under trees and what not? More durable? Don't know, just asking

Not as good a cut normally but better for using the tractor as a tractor. Depends on what you value more....

Mows cameras and chain saws better than a deck mower....

Btw Nate instead of the flail mower you can get a finish mower for the back. Can’t mow small trees and tools but a better finish.

Unless you are dead set on new you can pick this up for a fraction of the price and really should last a really long time for what you want to do.

I can hook you up with a small box scraper brand new for a very reasonable price. My neighbor that we feed the Wagyu for deals them.

You can get a real good cut on the 3 point mowers. You have to get finish blades and keep them sharp.
