Hello,
Been lurking about and doing some research and have become a little confused in the process.
We live on 4 acres, mostly wooded with some lawn and a long driveway. Mrs. Tombo said I could go ahead and get a new toy, er tool to landscape, haul out firewood for the fireplace and do routine driveway maintenance.
My mother-in-law lives next door and she and Mrs. Tombo want a trail through the woods so that Mrs. Tombo Jr. can get to Grandma's house without going in the road.
I have been looking only at Deeres and Kubotas because the dealers for both are nearby. What I am wondering about is the difference between say tractors with 24" rears and those with 16" rears. I like the larger ones because the laws of physics tell me they will pull more before spinning out. They are also wider and since I live on a hill, wide is good. I like the smaller ones for their compact size (I only have a 16' x 16' shed and everything needs to be in it). I am thinking there is no way I am getting a larger size tractor with a loader and hoe in that shed. Hence my dilemma. I know what you are thinking, and were I to come home with two tractors, I would be setting up a bunk in the shed with them. Any feedback would be delightful.
Thanks in advance!
