Really 2 or 3 thousand isn't very much for a toy if you want it. Heck I spent $1500 ish on a 3 point tiller that I may use once or twice a year.
I say if you want one, buy one...at the very least your kids will have fun with it.

Brad, I'd go with the gravel. In the long run you'll be better off than buying another toy. Resale of the property will be better with the road upgrade verses buying the machine. Spread it out over two years if the cost of the road is high for one year.

The only issue with gravel is the excavator guy said I need a really good dry summer to do it. I mean it has to be dry. He said the problem is building the road hauling the gravel to the back end parts and driving over the first part eventually could fuck that up if its not dry enough even with gravel down. So I need the right conditions. I have not had that the past few years. He also talked about maybe during it during the dead of winter when the frost is in the ground. Its so bad its even hard to build a road.
I agree gravel probably is the way to just be able to get it done and be done.

I know what your talking bout Brad. I have and have had 17 yards to move that has been sitting for over a month. Waiting for the conditions to get right so I can get it to where it needs to be without fuckin up everything else. I can get to it but several trips with a wagon load would really cut it up.
