Looking at buying a midsize JD lawn tractor with a blower. Is 2 wheel drive with chains good enough or should I buy 4 wheel drive. Have 8 acres and a fairly hilly 300ft. driveway not paved. Thanks.

If you had a paved driveway you could probably get by with a lawn tractor but with gravel, you will be MUCH happier with a 4x4 garden tractor, SCUT or maybe a CUT if the money is available. Two-wheel drive lawn tractors, even with chains, will do a lot of spinning which makes a divot surrounded with rocks that get thrown with the next pass. With the 4x4, there is almost no spinning.
