Your in the desert, much like beach sand it is soft and easily moves to let your front wheels sink enough to be stuck. Go with a MFWD or 4x4 model. I have been up in the ID sand in the tater country and down in the tater country of CO around Alamosa / Blanca area so I know from experience what I'm saying about the sand deal. Now for lifting the ton or less the front wheels will be invaluable for that. Something in the 60-90 horse will be a much better choice for your program. The N series will be woefully inadequate for what you want to lift and move. In sand it will be mostly useless for you. Not enough lift on the 3pt with the light front end and not enough lift on the loader end with the light rearend. Power steering will be a must to steer with the weight you want to lift. Spending more up front will be cheaper than having to buy a couple different tractors to find out they are not the ticket. Models you might consider 2940 or 6000 series deere 5000 series caseIH even some of the Agco /Oliver models with MFWD would work. Though to me those had a lot of strange manufacturing places with possibly parts being an issue. You may laugh at this but you can buy some of the old 2+2 models pretty cheap and have all the lift and go you would ever need.
