A few good rain storms will do more than any type of equipment, but yeah I guess the Hummer will do for now :)

What do yo plan to do there, build something or just park, or lawn ?

Building a shop.

As far as rain, I would ask you "what is rain " but Thankfully it is raining as I type, First measurable rain this year for me, out side of a little ice storm we had.

I was fixing to run a water line down, but fortunately held off to see if this forecast would turn in to anything, I am a little worried about the water depth of my well.

After the water has a couple of days to set in, I will go back over the slab area again.

I used a Golf Cart in the past to do this :) Worked good.

If your tractor has AGs, alternate between it and the auto. Yould be surprised the intensity of pressure on AG tread bars.

I think you are a little mistaken on that weight. I believe the H2 weighed in somewhere around 6400 lbs with a GVW of about 8600. So still more weight, just not as much more as you thought - unless you had a bunch of paver blocks or something loaded in the back of the Hummer.

Good suggestion, is about the PSI as well as the total weight.

A human shoe heel probably excerts more PSI the D8 dozer.

Let's see, I got an idea. When this job is complete get some R-1 tires, a disk, a drag spring tooth and a drag harrow and you are nearly in the farming business.:laughing:
