[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 4277573, member: 45773"] I picked up a really nice 3 point auger for my 3025E for chump change. I'm sure it would work great in dirt. It takes forever, though, to get thru the clay on our property. It hits the clay and just spins on it and I can't get enough down pressure to get the blade to bite. If I get lucky and get a spot with little or no clay it powers thru 4 feet of dirt in no time. The clay here is the bane of my existence. I have a repair job I need to do. I thought it might be dry enough today to start digging with the backhoe on the 1025R. It was fine for the first foot. Below that the clay started sticking to everything and it's nearly impossible to get it to dump out of the bucket. Guess I'll stop for the day and let it dry for a day or two and get after it again. I'm really impressed with the 1025R. The problem with a machine like this is I can no longer put off things I need to do around here.
