We have the Bronco 72R from Ag-Meier, it's one of the locally-produced higher quality ones in our neck of the woods. It's 6' wide, about 900#s, and we use it with a 50HP Kioti. I have to rebuild (i.e. replace the brake pads and adjust tension) the slip clutch every year, but it's a beast - we hit everything from rocks to stumps to bottoming out in hard clay, and it keeps ticking. Picked up a big length of rebar whipped it around and made track in the top of the housing, but no negative effects otherwise.
Ours spends half its time in meadows and trails, and half its time in the pine woods dodging trees and cutting down saplings.
