Tractor Sizing Time to upgrade from my L3400, need advice

My Grandpa is 93 years old. He still works almost everyday. He refuses to believe he is 93. He mostly does carpenter work at no charge to whoever needs it, but he does whatever needs done around his place.

I spent Thanksgiving with the in-laws. After stuffing ourselves, we went for a walk in the woods trail, out behind their house. Very steep, up and down land in heavy fir trees and mountain laurel. About 15 minute into our walk, their neighbor, George, came tearing out of the woods on his quad and stopped to chat. Then, with a chipper farewell and a twist of the throttle, he was off. We watched him as he rose out of the saddle and crested a rise, catching air on the downside. My brother in-law turned to me and said "not bad for 82, eh"? I agreed and thought to myself there is more to aging than just getting old. That guy was living proof.

That's pretty sweet. I like the line Morgan Freeman said in a movie (can't remember the movie's title). "get busy living, or get busy dying". The neighbor is busy living...
