I'm new to this forum but have been scanning discussions for a few weeks. Looking for a tractor for our 10 acres, about 5 of which are field with about one and a half acres of lawn and 4 acres of woods from which I plan to haul firewood. Mostly flat terrain located in Concord, New Hampshire. Parts of the field and woods are quite wet, staying muddy for a good part of the summer. Am thinking of a B7500, MF 1423, or Kioti CK20. New Holland seems overpriced as is the John Deere. Like most, have not driven the CK20 but I like the weight and, frankly, it looks cool. Any pluses or minuses among these? R4's or turfs? - most use will be rotary mowing, garden tilling, finish mowing and possibly snow blowing. Also, one dealer has suggested that a finish mower would work in the field which has been mowed twice a year - those pesky thorn bushes that keep coming back seem to be the thickest obstacle. Thanks for any suggestions.
