It's 160 acres of mostly untouched wilderness, an hour from the nearest town. In my area, you can get a large plot for the price of a new truck. Our house is on 7 cleared acres and I use the rest for wood heat, although barely making a dent to take 5 cords per year. Brad

The YardMule DIY Electric Tractor hauls 30 loads of dirt away from an excavation site. Since I had to cross a septic field and didn't want to mark up my lawn, the Mule was perfect for the job. Even after working for 4 hours up and down the massive hill to the dump site, the batteries were still...
