Hi everyone,
well we are new in the Tractor world and need some help with the right size. Since the Dealer are dismissing the smaller units. Been at JD, K, Yanmar.
I like the Specs of the Massey Ferguson and looks, but would like to get more input from more experienced folks.
We have 5 acres (steep) with 1/4mile driveway in North Idaho. Planning on use the Tractor in these ways:
Or if the 1736 the better option, to manage the task?
Like I said flat surface is a premium around here, so turning radius is important. On the other side I am pretty Big, 6'6" tall and could be less wide.
I know I'll have to check them out in person, just looking for pointer before showing up at the dealership.
Thanks
Mike

We have 5 acres (steep) with 1/4mile driveway in North Idaho. Planning on use the Tractor in these ways:
- Snow removal on driveway and yard, will hunt down an old Pull behind V-Style PTO Blower
- Use the Loader for Wet-Snow removal "pretty rare around here"
- Maintain the driveway, thinking Box-Scaper
- Gathering Firewood off the Property
- Moving And stacking Firewood. Wood stacked on a 3' tall Pallet "with side walls", Want to move them 1 by 1 in the winter close to the door
- Moving Dirt, slowly filling in a reviene we have. Gaining flat ground to park.
- Wood-Chipper down the road.
- Tons of other ways I haven't even thought of yet.
