Hire a good plumber that can run a camera. Since there's clean outs at one end and daylighted the other they could go both ways. They are ways, and solvents to clear out concrete. So maybe something to dissolve hardened mineral deposits is available. The good news is, it is not under slab...

100 %. Or at least 1/2" sch 40.

Or We used these, vibrating plow pullers, but on a much larger scale for golf course construction back in the 80's and 90's. Ours were ride on, big machines. Vermeer brand I think it was. You might be able to rent a small walk behind unit. Very little damage to the grass.

Or Take your box blade and remove all rippers but one. Set it as deep as you can and tilt the box for extra depth. Rip it good. Then after, hire the 14 year old to clear out the trench. Might make a mess of your grass tho.

You want it for Cat 5 just under the grass? Pressure washer. Or Chain saw. Or Flat blade hand shovel and a 14 year old. https://youtube.com/shorts/du-MoYZR8As?feature=shared

Looks like mouse piss. Literally. Mice pee always as they crawl around and it sticks to the horizontal parts. Hit it with a disenfectant like OdoBan our Lysol and see if it comes off. JUST Spray it, wait a couple minutes and try to wipe it off. AND Wear gloves. If it comes off, it is...

303 Aerospace protectant is your friend. If you buy new fender(s), 303 it at least 1x a year. I have a 2003 ATV with good plastics - body panels and fenders.. It is 22 y/o. If you park it outside in hot sun all the time. Forget about it. Or try 303 every month.

Add ons: Backhoes are 10 grand add on. Add a cab? Another 10 grand. Front snow blower? Again... 10 grand. If you want a simpler basic tractor with a loader. Much, much, cheaper. You could buy a well equiped MX open station with a loader and a box blade, for less $ than B or LX with a...

Just go look at and drive them, if you haven't done so. Garage size is usually secondary to the job intended. But with some; it is first. If you are a 1st time tractor owner and have a big wallet, the Grand L was made for you. Made exactly for you. Kubota did it's homework on affluent small...

We must getting everyone's portion in NW Wisconsin. Rainiest summer in 10 plus years. Haven't gone 2 days straight without storms. Until this week. Finally, the rain is calming down. No rain yesterday, no rain today, no rain on the forecast tomorrow. Maybe I can mow tomorrow. But the...

I think @hedgerow nailed it. Get a big MX and if it fits in your garage... That IS the one. As for going thru the process of fitting the BH in your garage daily is an issue, don't do it all the time. If you are going to be using it for several days, leave it parked outside. And when you...

Get the tractor you need and modify your garage door. No drama, just money to alter the door.

Very True. For leveling... The land plane is great for driveways. Long, straight, linear. A box scraper is good, for situations where you can drag it from 360 degrees over the area. You normally can't do that with a driveway. But a box scraper IS more useful overall. 2 or 3 posts in...

Quick hitches are for lazy farmers. I'd say... Buy an off-brand QH from the same place that you are getting the box scraper from. If you really want a QH. Cheaper than Land Pride.

Hagrid, the #1 OTT Jokester. He's just messing with you. But you probably figured that out.
