I would agree that a rubber tired machine is a better one to own for the long term and the best choice for a first machine. If you need to drive it a few miles down the road, you can. If you need to dig out a stump, you can. If you need to do some ditching you can, Digging footings for a foundation,no problem as long as you don't hit hard rock and it sounds as if you won't. They're even good for moveing snow if you need to. If you put tire chains on the machine it will help a great deal. It's a little tough to put in a driveway with, But if you take your time you could do it! Digging a large pond in a wet area, That's another story! I,ve spent weeks working on pond jobs that have had a lot of equipment. An LPG Cat D6, A cat, 225 excavator, Pontoons for the excavator to sit on so it doesn't sink out of sight, And end dumps to transfer the dirt. Also on other jobs I've worked we've had Scrapper pans, A Cat D7E, A Cat D4G LGP, a D8K with a ripper and a Cat 215 excavator. All these machines were on the Job at the same time. On a good day we move a lot of dirt. Then, If it rains hard, we don't move anything. In perfect conditions, Once, we dug a one acre pond in a day. This is an exception and not generally the rule. In land clearing, with a Cat D7E and a D5 we averaged about 3/4 ths to one acre a day. Good Luck and May you have happy Trails in your venture! Dave!
