  I decided to borrow my dad's Husqvarna 6HP tiller (similar to
http://www.usa.husqvarna.com/Folder_263/node606.asp?id=23 ) to turn over
the garden at my house a couple years ago.  He said it was a brute, but I
didn't pay any attention.  I fired the thing up, and it promptly buried
itself deep into the dirt -- almost up to the handles.

  The soil was nice and loose after that, though...

  Regards,
    Greg
