/ Looking for new or used garden tractor, something strong enough to plow, PTO, 3 pt hitch, don’t need mower attachment.

Another option which is often forgotten is the Simplicity Legacy XL garden tractor. I think Simplicity stopped making them in the last 5 years or so, but they were made for 20+ before that. They could be had in 2WD or 4WD, Kohler Command gas or Briggs diesel, and some had a 3-point hitch and a loader option. All had power steering and power deck lift for the mower, if equipped. 5 gallon fuel tank, tachometer, headlights and tail lights, rear fuel fill, fuel gauge, illuminated instruments. All had a rear diff lock. Very nice well made machines at a considerably better price than the Deere X700 series, and just as capable. You might be able to find one on the used market. However, a Kubota BX - even an old one - is considerably "more" machine and probably not much difference in money, so check pricing carefully.
