I'm looking at getting a new tractor sometime this year. The primary jobs will be skidding logs and loader work. How much does HP matter vs how much the weight of the tractor matter? One I've looked at is the MF 4700 series. The 70 hp and 100 hp are the same tractor except for tuning on the engine. Would the extra HP make that much of a difference for this kind of work? I know HP is important with PTO work. It seems to me that a lighter tractor will run out of traction before it does HP. I just don't want to run out of HP before traction.
