Looking to get my first tractor and looking for advice.
I have 5 acres, mostly wooded. I'm primarily looking for a front-end loader. I'm looking to spend ~5K and I know there are deals out there.
The question is - i'm not sure what to look for and stay away from, from a brand perspective, engine size, diesel vs gas, etc.
I'm primarily looking to use my FEL for carrying loads, moving dirt and minor grading at times, carrying heavy loads, moving firewood and trees, rock moving/removing, etc. Uses are endless. I dont have any implements I have my sights on for now, although i'm sure i'll pick some up eventually (bush hog probably, but not sure about any others).
Looking for some advice for a newbie.
Thanks!
