After years of reading these forums and struggling to get by with my 2WD G series, I finally bought a real tractor. I live on 10 acres of hilltop in central NY and the Winter here can be brutal with drifting snow filling in my 225' driveway. We have wind break trees planted, but they're not big enough yet to solve the problem. I'm also mowing 4 acres of grass, and that takes a lot more time than I'd like it to. Anyway, here is what I ended up getting: B2620HST with bar/turf tires, LA364 loader w/ bucket and grill guard, 60" MMM, B2781A 51" blower w/ hydraulic rotation, and ballast box. The dealer suggested I go with the bar/turf combo tires which apparently are turf in the front and bar in the rear. He said this is the first tractor he has seen that tire option available on. I saw a B2920 at another dealership set up the same way. The theory is that the front turfs will be easier on the lawn with the rear bar tires providing good traction for snow removal and loader work. I'm not sure when delivery is going to be scheduled but I will post again with pics when it does. I can't wait!
