Yes maintaining. I'll add new trails over time but primary goal is maintenance for now. I've looked at land planes briefly. Not as many for sale and more expensive but would definitely be nice to have one day.

You could definitely make money on that now, especially if you have the rippers.

This is helpful, thank you so much. I think this confirms what I thought on sizing. Now I need to quit being tight and just buy one

I guess my sarcasm didn't come through in text. I'm not buying a $7k box blade lol my budget is $900

That's basically what I need, except I prefer a little more hydraulics than that offers.

Negative. I'm going from my own account to my own other account, then getting a cashiers check. It's a process.

:) Neither of those statements sound much like me. Used it will be.

Thanks. Yes I have a truck and access to a trailer so I can go get it. I'm not willing to travel 8 hours for a box blade, my time is worth too much it'd be cheaper to buy new at dealer. Would love to have hydraulic remotes added one day. That's way down the list though, for now I just need...

Looking for a 5' box blade for my B2650. Is there any reason I shouldn't buy this used? What should I be looking for? I'm a newbie so take it easy on me. It seems landpride is the premium option. I don't care about it matching the tractor, don't want green :) but yellow, red, or rust are all ok...

I'll post some after I get it to my house. Waiting on banking stuff, hoping for tomorrow!

To close the loop on this, I ended up buying a B2650 with 100 hours on it. Slightly larger machine than what I initially was looking for, thanks to you guys. I'm very excited to get some seat time on it once I get it on my property! Thanks for all of the input.

Budget 15-20k cash. Model probably b2650 or LX2610, or an L series if I can find one in the price range although I'm concerned on turning radius there but I'll be testing at dealer soon to see how I feel about it. I don't plan to use a bush hog on trails, at least for now. I have a DR walk...

This is very helpful, than you for sharing. I do plan to get the piranha as one of the first upgrades to whatever I get. I have run a Dr brush mower in places and have 2" poplar sapling stubs in many spots. I plan to dig those out over time but for now an concerned about tire punctures. They...

I found a B2650 I like for a fair price, but it has turf tires. I've seen a few others with tires looking like tread was worn down, so that's why I was checking on pricing. I think turf tires are gonna spin pretty bad in some of my projects, like scooping gravel, etc.

What is the approximate price of switching from 'lawn' tires to the newer hybrid ones? Sorry I don't know the correct terms. I'm just trying to find a ballpark if I find a tractor I like with the wrong tread for my use.
