Jim, TLB stands for tractor-loader-backhoe.

I have trouble selling stuff too but for a different reason. I like having stuff.

The excavator suggestion is a good one, but you'd still need something else to do grading. Perhaps you could rent an excavator and use whatever tractor you buy to grade with.

I'm going to throw something else at you to think about....

I suspect you'll need to dig deeper than what you want for finish grade and use some of what was on the original surface to bring it back up to grade.

I have a 14' dump trailer. While I don't think it would be a good choice for a project like yours it's a very handy thing to own. I don't think you'll regret buying yours even if you don't use it for this project. You'll get plenty of use out of it. My dump trailer is rated at 14,000 GVWR with a payload capacity of just under 10,000 pounds.

As others have said, shuttle is the way to go for loader work.
