We were just discussing the value of the 4 in 1. OK at everything, great at nothing. Get a grapple, and buy a bucket with a toothbar. You will be way happier. Pushing dirt / snow requires the correct tool. I don't push any dirt so others will chime in.
The PT is not an exceptional machine at ground engagement. It isn't bad, but the torque and beef in a "normal" tractor is much more condusive to ground work. I maintain a mile long dirt road, no problems, I do cut trails on the hillsides of my property (something of a problem with 8 tires).
The PT does everything good, none of it great. It is hugely versatile, and outside of plowing a field IMO better than any tractor I have worked with. Stay away from the power rake btw. I don't know of anyone who has bought it who didn't try to sell it in a year.
