Central Texas. Need to clear mucho cedar, some pretty large. Build a gravel road. Some shredding. Round bales. Dig/enlarge stock tank/pond. Always seem to be doing something requiring a post hole to be dug. Currently using a JD 790. 790 is a great little tractor, but nowhere near enough. Looking at a Mahindra 4530 or 5530. 4530 priced at $19,800 with loader and no rear valves. 5530 priced at $22,650 with larger loader and one set of rear valves. From all I've heard, the 4530 would be plenty of tractor. No matter which way I go, I'll have to get a more capable trailer ($3000), and a grill guard ($160). Valves on the 4530 would go about $850. Would only be at the land a couple times a month at most.
