Hi Guys - I am new to this board and I have only been a tractor owner for about a year, but I have got the fever bad. Right now, I have an old Ford 8N and Ford 850 plus my lawn tractor, but I really do want a compact with FEL. My budget will be around $8,000, so I am sure a new one is pretty much out. I would like to have 25-30 HP. My place is 18 acres of woods, flat terrain, in East Texas (little snow). I will be brush hogging along the roads plus a few chores like moving dirt, pushing over saplings; ie. the regular stuff. I do have one moderately steep trail down to the lake that I need to drag some downed brush and wood out of, so stability is important. What would you recommend? I am sentimental about the old 8N and will probably keep her; please no wisecracks!/w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif.
Thanks for your help.
