QUESTION:I'm going to have to
get a small "garden tractor" (read less than $4k) to whack the weeds
among the gopher holes. Trouble is these diminutive tractors never seem
to have a PTO and seldom have anything passing for a 3-point hitch. And I
can't find a company that sells a tractor, that also includes what I
consider useful accessories, like a small backhoe and/or post hole digger.
I'd settle for a d-i-y kit or even plans for a backhoe if I could find
them, but no such luck. Anyone got suggestions?
ANSWER: A PTO and 3 pt hitch are pretty standard on old tractors like the 8N, which
can be had for under $2K. Look for one that comes with a posthole digger.
Dunno about the backhoe- I guess you could drill a series of holes with the
posthole digger.
