    How large to do the job?

    Thanks for everyone's input. I wasn't thinking much beyond the demo work which the KX161 would be just right for I suspect. A CTL is probably the best choice. I've got 5 old tractors on the farm suppose I should trade them all in for one useful, reliable machine.

    Hi all, Another new guy here with several questions... I'm considering getting a compact ex to use "around the farm". The main job I have to do is clean up debris from two old barns that fell down. I have a FEL but am concerned about the tires getting nails and it's not very good at dealing...
