Tractor or new kitchen?

[Thomas]

Go for the kitchen,after kitchen done you can put all your effort towards tractor and your bride should give you her blessing.

I don't have a quote for the kitchen, but it will be a lot less than a tractor.

Don't bet on it...when you get done with the "might as wells"

For what you described, I would find a good used tractor, for less mom to use for now. You don’t a new one and if you can get a good enough deal, you will have money left over to work on your kitchen.

Since its not my wife get the tractor

Spent 32K on a used Kubota TLB (play thing) two months ago.
Wife left 22 years ago.
Divorce cost huge....but WORTH it!
Now.... 19 year GF,.... didn't complain.
Works for me!

Kitchen can wait!
Get the tractor!

Big surprise that the advice on a Tractor Forum is...

To buy the tractor!

Lol.

I'll be the odd man out too, I guess. Since you don't live there, but will "someday" move back, I would hire the work done at the homestead ranch and get the kitchen remodeled. Then immediately sell the house with the remodeled kitchen. Then move into your RV that you relocate to the homestead ranch and build a house there to live permanently. Once you've moved there, (in the RV), buy a tractor. You can use it to aide in the new home construction, as well as further maintaining and pushing back the wild brush on site.

You will now be living on your homestead, in a new house, with a new kitchen, AND you will have a tractor.

Done and done.

What this guy said ^^^

Also, getting the work hired out first time will get it done quickly and hopefully thoroughly, making future upkeep much easier once you get out there.

Remodel the kitchen, sell the RV, buy the tractor.

Then you’ll have a new kitchen, a happy wife, and a tractor.

After 22 yr since the ball and chain left you are probably financially better off. At least that is the story from many MGTOW (Men going their own way) videos

Quite sure you'll require the tractor to tear out the old kitchen. That's how I'd sell it.
