Mom & Dad are leaving the family "home-place" to me & my wife (29 acres). We want to build a house there but, we've got our work cut out. Needs lots of clean up---15 yrs of unrestrained Mother Nature. I see several trips to the landfill, pulling stuck tractors out of the mud, and lots of other heavy hauling/pulling in our future. My 1009's great but, way too small for any serious work. Could get a civy 4x4 1-ton, just not enough truck. Was thinking about buying something with a little more heft. Besides, big MV=fun, right
? I know, big MV also=$$$ depending on use/abuse
. I have a CDL and I'm fairly mech. inclined. I like simple/rugged but, ease of operation will factor in. Pros/cons -5-ton cargo or deuce? Comments appreciated.
