I think implements like that are so expensive because when they get mounted to a compact or larger tractor they assume commercial use, so they are built accordingly.

When you think about it, a compact 4WD tractor with cab, trailer to haul it, snow thrower ... you are now in business, could make thousands during a good snow season. Snow blowers can charge big money because they can put snow places that plows can't, and can get into places plows can't. Most of the affluent neighborhoods in our area have only snow blowers doing their removal .. they have expensive lawns, masonry driveways, lots of landscaping, walkways etc. that are too easy to damage with a truck and plow.
