I am saving up for a new or nearly new compact, 4x4, diesel tractor with a bucket. I would like to get one around 30 horse. Would like to:
1) Use it in the woods to get firewood.
2) Be able to move stone and possibly have a york rake to repair my driveway (800' long).
3) Move snow piles that get quite large when we really get dumped on.
4) Have a 5' bush to mow my fields. (just a few acres (5?))
5) Possibly put a front or rear mounted snow blower on it (not likely)
I am only interested in the major Brand names (ie JD, Kubota, New Holland). This is a once in a lifetime purchase and I want to do it right. I would rather spend a few extra bucks and get exactly what I want. Any suggestions what to look for or get?
Thank You
