Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. I am looking to buy a 90-105HP 4X4 tractor for pulling an 80" Pronovost inverted snowblower in a couple Rockie Mountain communities. Being the mountains, there tends to be relatively steep inclines and declines (at least relative to normal farm lands).
Are there any special considerations (transmission, wheel base, front weights, something i dont even know to ask..) i should be making given the terrain in which the tractor will be operating? Are there certain brands, models or features that would be better suited for handling mountain terrain over others?
I am pretty sure i have the needed HP correct but not sure on much else.
I am looking to spend a max of $50K for a tractor that can handle the terrain in which it will be operating and that can go a minimum of 20 mhp on the road (preferably 25). Thank you for any input.
