I maintain about 1/4 mile of rural driveway, connected to a 2 mile private road where I also am responsible for a good amount of maintenance. I currently primarily rely on a 6' adjustable blade, which I can swing relative the ground and side to side to cut / pull gravel out of ditches. My primary challenge are some large ruts generated by heavy rains in some spots and also a high crown in the middle of the drive on some stretches. Grass grows thick in those areas and I get grass in a lot of less frequently travelled spots.
I'm leaning towards a box scraper but would like opinions. Is that the proper tool? What brand should I look at? What size? I have a Kubota M7060 (70hp) and a Duetz D4006 (35hp). Both very capable tractors. The Kubota has a FEL.
I would value any experience / advice you would be willing to share.
