Hello,
I need advice with tractor purchase. Property is 8 acres, (residential)
3 acres grass. 3acres woods, and the rest is house and driveway.I have alot of small equipment to maintain the property,(hustler mower,trimmers,saws, and an old jeep for keeping the drive way clear during the winter months.
I want a machine that can be used to plow the drive, (approx 100 yards plus another 100 yards of common drive. Haul around mulch,grass clippings, brush, and all the misc. stuff i am forgetting. I recently saw an ad for a ford/new Holland 2120. seems to be what i would need,but also have no experience with tractors of this size. any help is appreciated.
thanks in advance

Dave

Maybe something that will handle a 54"-60" mowing deck if you are going to mow with the tractor. When you start getting into the 72" decks the tractor size is going to jump up significantly. Diesels are nice. A FEL is worth its weight in gold. Consider a three point big enough to run a small rotary cutter, back blade, PHD and other things that you may need later on.
