Need Help - First Tractor

Posted by Jerry on September 17, 2002 at 11:43:18 from (68.15.225.72):

Hello,
I am currently building a house on 10 acres in Nebraska. I have a 900' gravel drive that the builder tells me will need to be maintained by a tractor about twice a year. I will also need to clear snow off the drive when needed. The house will be towards the top of a bluff (yes, there are hills in NE - Just not a lot). I am going to need a tractor here pretty soon -house is done in three months. It will be used on the road mostly so odd chores, maybe a post hole digger etc.

What do I need as far as a tractor. I know a wide-front. It's the snow that's worrying me. My price range is under 5K but I can go higher if I have to. I'm getting a bunch of different opinions from locals. Some say 4 wheel drive, other a compact others an old tractor. I like the older tractors, especially the looks of the Farmalls but right now I'm not too picky.
Thanks a lot.
Jerry
