[QUOTE="OK Corgi Rancher, post: 3852160, member: 45773"] This almost sounds like the tractor version of Goldilocks... I've owned 4 tractors. I bought my first in early 2017...a Massey Ferguson GC1710 w/backhoe because I needed something to move snow and thought I'd use it for other things. As a matter of fact, I used it for so many other things it wasn't long before I realized how handy a bigger tractor would be. It was too small. 2nd tractor was a 2015 TYM T454 w/cab. Big, heavy tractor that was really nice. The cab was nice to keep out of the weather but visibility wasn't as good and the tractor was too big to get around in some of the places on the property. It was too big. 3rd tractor was a John Deere 2038R w/backhoe. Perfect size for my property in Idaho and very capable for a compact tractor. I really regret having to sell it when I moved to OK. It was just right. Latest is the JD 3025E. I NEED to get the tires filled with RimGuard. Good size tractor. But, it's probably a little on the small/light side for our property here in Ada. I like it because there's no emissions crap on it. I think the ideal tractor for this place would be something like a 3046R or even a 4044R would be great. But either of those are at the very high end of what we could afford. But I think I'll keep the 3025E for a few years, sell it and move up just a smidge. I haven't met too many tractors I didn't like. I do know the big-name brand tractors are much easier to sell when it's time for something new than some lesser known brands. I think the TYM was as good as any tractor out there but few people, at least in Idaho, had ever heard of them. It took almost a month to sell. The MF took less than a week. The JD took less than an hour once I posted it.
