"A wheeled tractor in my opinion is a much better investment"

What do you suggest?

I have 100's if not 1000 or more stumps that will need to be uprooted.

I used a ford 3400 with a front loader for this task b4, it was a nightmare, just not enough power.

I'd hate to beat up a backhoe doing that kind of work...

Basically growing up, I've had the experience using 9N's, 8N's and that 3400 3 cyl diesel, and I can't see anything like that enabling me to efficiently do the work I want to do.

We beat the hell out of my fathers 9N digging our small 80 x 80 ft pond when I was a kid...

I need to dig a 2-3 acre pond for drainage & landscape purposes, probably about 20 ft deep max.

I understand the whole UC $$$$ thing...

I guess if you guys can make some alternative machine suggestions, I'd appreciate them.
