You might consider a dozer with 6 way blade.
It is alot easier leveling, grading, and ditching with a 6 way. Unless you are in a hurry, or some realy large trees. You colud get by with a JD 450 - 550 size machine(they do make larger machines with 6 way), but these are a handier, and easier to move size. Not saying to get a JD,but that is what I am somewhat familiar with.

Thought about, but have some large stone/ledge to move. I think I need the weight of a bigger machine. Keep the comments coming - thank you!

Joe: Depending on the composition of the ledge, you MAY be able to rip it with a rear-mounted ripper and then doze it out of the way. As was mentioned, the larger dozers often go for less than the smaller ones (a friend picked up a tired but servicable cable-blade D9 for $3,000 a couple of years back) as they are difficult to haul. This won't be a problem for you (other than the inital move) and so may play in your favor.
