Anyone have one of these and what is your experience. For a tow behind gravel grader, this thing looks like it's built like a tank. Coming in at 400 pounds, which would be needed for any tow behind grader to get a good depth of dig with Scarfier's.

My wife grandpa has the Dr brand of this. (The second picture)It looks very similar. I've used it behind his old John deere tractor on his 1/3 of a mile drive. It does ok. Not great. If the stone is deep and loose it does a really good job. If the stone has been smooshed down and compacted into the dirt it struggles to bring it up. If you plan to get out and maintain your driveway often it should be ok. Def. Not a commercial grade tool though.
