I am mostly done reclearing our property in the mountains, which is why I bought the machine in 2010. I am now using it to rebuild the cabin on the property from the arson fire in 1991. This has been a very long time in coming together, with the road washing out 18 years ago and finally getting fixed last year. I have more than 400 hours on the skid steer reclearing the property. After following this forum since I joined, I am very glad that I have a Thomas and not another brand. This machine was very well engineered with many adjustable systems, that other machines do not have. Be safe everyone!
