Those are good, more expensive. Box blades, like that, are good at building roads. You can scrap snow and grade an existing road with just the rear blade. 

google/YouTube the difference to figure out what you need if still wondering.

I bought the 6' er and it works just fine. Would recommend that over the 5' so you can cover your tracks. 

I was looking at that and the 7 foot but I was concerned because the 7 foot has horrible reviews, people are saying the support is too weak and they are bending in half on first use

it works awesome on a 3 foot frozen bank, only took 10 minutes to clear it out

I need to get the mower deck off because it is in the way, I'm trying to get down to the barn so I can stick it down there. I guess I can pull it off and stick it on the snowmobile trailer and tarp it

yep, ready for tomorrow.

Pork how well do you think a hay spear will work on the back of that. I'm wondering if they will be too much weight but round bales would save me a ton of money.

That is next on my list for major purchases. They made my belly armor, good product and experience. 

I think round bales are just too much. It also depends what rounds weigh out by you. They vary by location. Rear lift is limited to 900 lbs or so... Things could get hairy at those weights, however.

Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Better to be safe than sorry.

got to spend 3 or 4 hours on it yesterday, pretty amazed by how much this thing can lift
