Flat and gently slope, we got lucky.
There is a place for or fifth wheel rv and a clear my husband made with a stone fire pit.
He is not done.
I need a flat area for my Herbal Plate plots and some fruit trees.
We wants to build his own septic system like he did on our other property we sold years ago.
Plus expand the rv parking area with a turn around.

His biggest complaint lately was 78 years is too old to be using a shove. post hole digger and hoe and wheelbarrow. using the winch on the front of our truck to help him pull out big boulders.
No, My Dear Husband gets tired easily and has slowed down he told me.

So, last night after looking all day on the internet he went to where he bought our Lithium  Iron Phosphate batteries for our fifth wheel.
He visit the Alibaba website and AliExpress website.

Are you bored yet?
No? you want to know what happened???? 

My Husband found exactly what he wanted, a small Excavator.


It will come with a Top that is removable.
How do I know, My husband ask me to call the Sales manager we was emailing.
I pulled out my cell phone I use to call China and she answer. we talked for about 45 minutes.
I got to choose my colors (like above red & black) and she gave us a canopy and tool box (with tool) and new filters for the engine.
So you're asking how much?

In America a know mini excavator stars at $16000. with a gas engine.
This one delivered to out Door and uncrated will be $5275. they are paying for the shipping to America and insurance on the ship encase of loss or damage and they will take care of the Customs Clearance Paperwork, so I am paying for the broker to clear customs and get the excavator shipped to our door.
We are paying $3600. for the excavator, $2125. for broker and shipping from San Diego, Ca. to our door.

We will have to pay the Tariffs cost or Port fees. which will be $875. total. So the final cost is $6150.
We will have the excavator in our driveway by June. It could have be sooner but I wanted a different color that what they had ready to ship.
So we should be saving $10,000. or more dollar.

This excavator comes with an electric start Diesel engine 12 HP.
It will weigh 1544 Lbs. The open trailer size we need for towing this behind our fifth wheel is 5 by 8 or 5 by 9 would be better.

So,, Now he can sit on his ass and dig our trench and holds and with the front little blade, flatten out an area.

Just some news I wanted to share.

I would be excited too ! Great deal ! There is a $20,000 golf simulator which measures all kinds of things for hitting a golf ball. The Quad 4 (Chinese made) can be had from China for $1000 !

Let us hope all works as advertised for you and Mr. G.... That will be a great summer retreat at least cooler than Arizona !

I tried to get a backhoe attachment for it but it didn't work out, but I have a back blade, a three point plow, a six and a half foot snowblower, a back bucket, a disk harrow, A post hole digger, a boom for lifting things that attaches to the bucket, and a couple of other things.  I haven't used anything other than the loader and blower in many years now.  but it is nice having the tractor.  I use the snowblower every year, but also have a plowtruck with a seven and a half foot blade on it for plowing snow.  My tractor is only a thirty two horse power at the PTO, but it seems to work ok for me.

That thing is cute, but I really do not have a use for something like that anymore, I can't justify buying it.  It would be nice if my tractor had a heated cab on it so I will consider buying a new tractor  in a few years because it is hard thawing out after blowing snow. 

If you have a use for it, that is a great deal.  It probably will do what you need to do, it may be slow, but it will get the job done.  Getting a new toy like that is so much fun.  I passed on a backhoe about twenty years ago for five grand, it was a John Deere and it had a lot of life left to it...it belonged to a friend of mine's dad who retired.  I should have bought that, it had a heated cab.

This isn't really you just griping about not having young shirt-less men digging the trenches and holes for you
as sweat glistens on their naked chests and sheens their toned-muscles, is it?

You can get videos to solve that kind of craving, you know?

We only have two acres, but like houndog said, if we had that, my husband would never get off it.

We have an old Alis tractor, that he "thinks" will pull out stumps.  After about the 3rd time with the front end off the ground 5 feet, I went in the house shaking my head.
Thankfully, he never flipped it.
Never got the stump out either.  LOL

Why is it, when men older men get a new toy, they still think they are invincible?  LOL
