I have 26 acres in central Mississippi, about 13 acres in pasture and the rest is wooded. The pasture is fairly level. I have about a 1500 ft gravel driveway. I plan to build a house in the next year or so and have a baby on the way in August, so price is quite a concern to me. I would love to have a FEL but it is more of a want than a need at this time. I have looked at New Holland, Mahindra, Farmtrac, and Jinma. I really liked the New Holland TT45A because of price $12,000 and hp 42. I'm afraid of not being able to get parts for a Jinma years down the line. 35hp Mahindra and Farmtrac seem to cost about the same as the TT45A. All I plan to use the tractor for at this time is cutting grass, maybe a garden, and driveway maintenance. Do I need a FEL or 4wd? Thanks for any advice offered!
