Hey all,
I'm buying a house and will build a garage in a remote part of the yard. I would like not to have to put in a paved driveway and I don't own an atv. So do any of you use a lawn tractor or similar to shimmy your rig around the yard? I'm looking towards an 18' Tundra with a 150 & kicker if that makes a difference. Thanks, Steve L

19' Tracker moves easily with my John Deere 16hp... About anything will tow... Just not everything will stop a rig from a highway speed... LOL

I also forgot to mention that because of the tongue weight I toss another 100 lbs onto the front of the tractor... Have some old 20lb barbell weights and a welded rod just for this.

Thanks for the input guys.
However my problem has been solved(I think). We're not buying the "issue" house. If we buy the house we're currently looking at I'll need to add a real garage to the property and that's a problem I look forward to building.
