I cleared alot of acres with a tractor. I would do it again over a crawler if the Hp is the same. 1650 cockshut worked well for trees as long as you do it in spring when ground is wet. Put the loader up about 8-9 ft off the ground and lowest gear,push the tree over with minamul slip on the tires. That 8 ft trunk makes the tractor worth 4 times the horsepower of a crawler. Once the ball roles out you push and lift the tree out and remove. the best tractor I used was 4430 front assist. I could clear 10 acres faster than the neighbor was doing it with a d6 cat. Once you get the hang of it you can cut the scrub clean with the ground and just disc over it later.Other option is to take out the bigger trees (over3inch) in the spring,wait till ground freezes and shave off the scrub.
