Hey, Welcome to TBN! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
What part of the country are you in? A little more info in your profile might help us spend your money more efficiently /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
<font color=blue>a new tractor that we hope to find in the next week since we're both off for the holidays.

Slow down. Take more time to go out and test drive several makes and models. You might save yourself some money by making a more informed decision and getting the tractor that best fits your family's needs.
Whatever size you decide to go with, I'd recommend hydro for the needs that you mentioned. Just from my own experience, hydros are very easy on the operator, are easier to operate, and seem safer to me. Put your dad on one and see how he likes it vs a gear.
Good luck in your search. Let us know how it's going. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif
