Meanwhile, you can hire out the esential things (snow removal etc.) and watch how the equipment handles the job. If hay is in your future you will want at least 35-40 horsepower and live or independent PTO. Use the archives on this site to figure out the difference.

There is no limit to the amount of money you can waste in this hobby, so arm yourself with knowlege and patience.
