The thing is a bit dirty because I played with it for a little while (in between rain showers) here, bulldozing over some vines and brush, filling a low spot with dirt from a high spot next to it (BIG holes dug by a medium-sized dog from my tracks), I cleared a swath about 180 feet long by about 20 feet wide - and (laugh) then had to use a rake to pull all the vines and weeds out of the tracks! My wife got quite a chuckle when she saw me come back into our yard - she said that it was funny, seeing the vines and stuff dragging behind it!

The rear hydraulic rippers are very good and work well when the ground is fairly dry, but add a little mud and forget it. The Honda 390 engine is excellent and has more than adequate power. POSITIVES: The quality of the materials is good and the workmanship is also very good.
