Sounds like a skidsteer to me.

I have not found a place to rent 3pt attachments. I can easily rent skidsteer attachments though.

Having had both, I find a tractor more useful around home on a day to day basis. And, attachments for a 3pt type hitch are much less expensive if you do buy them.

I have access to a Bobcat S185, a pretty heavy duty machine(6000lb, 65hp). I can out dig, out load my CUT all day long with that skidsteer. But, for average stuff, I like my little Kubota.

I personally would get a tractor, and rent a skidsteer or tracked loader for major work.
