Running a dozer isn't hard to learn. It's the fine grading that takes time to master. I've put accountants and other office staff (school taught engineer types)on dozers and loaders to move snow or build an easy access road and for the most part it's turned out okay (the worst that happened is running out of fuel and even that was a good learning experience).
For what you will pay in delivery, rental and fuel, you may be money ahead to hire an outfit to put in your driveway. Good weather or not, there are a lot of hungry Operating Engineers out in the world, right now.
As for using geo-fabric, most everyone I know who has used it will swear by it.
