Thanks for the input Tom and Dan! Your comments made alot of sense. I have tried both models more than a few times and the part I was struggling with was the size of either tractor for mowing. Both seemed to big and heavy and awkward to me for mowing and I am certain would be even worse for my wife. Since our primary purpose for a tractor will be finish mowing and snow plowing the drive, we decided to buy a new John Deere 455 diesel tractor with a 60" deck and 54" blade. Spoke to several commercial guys who swear by this tractor. This unit sits much lower to the ground and is half the size and a third of the weight of the larger series. Will be easier to operate on hillsides and around obstacles. Bought the Tractor, deck, blade, weights, chains, for $10,700 or basically 1/2 the cost of the larger tractor. Since my loader and/or 3 point work is just occassional I will try to find a good used machine to use for these tasks. Many thanks again for the valuable input!
