I know what you mean 'gator. I've priced them, and by the time that you bought an adequately sized model, and got the special blade to cut smaller trees (<1 in. dia.) you were running four grand. I ended up buying a pull behind brush hog for two thousand and it cuts bigger stuff. The DR people are pretty proud of their product, and I'm sure others have had great experiences with them, but they're not cheap.
