I have 35 acres, 33 is wooded. Mostly uneven and rocky. Currently mow the 2 acres of grass with a JD x300 but it's very hard on the riding mower. I want to convert another acre or two to grass. Most of my tractor work will be in the woods making paths, deer plots, moving downed trees, also maintaining a 1000 ft gravel driveway. I will need to mow the grass as well (not finish mow just keep it down). Definitely need a front loader and a small bush hog, later on possibly a grader box and back hoe.
Would like to stay under 20k for initial purchase.
Kubota or JD? What size? Tire style? Fluid fill? Weights? Have scoured the forums here but want updated opinions since many threads are 5 or more years old.
