Overview
This isn't a tractor review but a real paid job filmed start to finish with a 3,500-lb mini skid: stripping topsoil, grading a pool pad to within an inch using a laser level, bucketing sand and 10 tons of limestone, and totaling actual hours and dollars ($900 job, 5.5 hours) against local excavator rental rates ($165-250/hr). Best for owners weighing mini skid economics and side-job pricing, not shoppers wanting a walkaround or spec sheet.
An owner-operator running a small equipment side business shares real job numbers and hands-on results from his own paid work.
