My husband and I are soon moving to a new place (to us), in Colorado. The piece is 16.32 acres (who's counting, though). We have discussed purchasing a tractor and tossed around what to buy. Since I know virtually nothing about them, I started researching and came upon this site. You guys seem full of tractor knowledge, so I figured I would ask your advice. I have horses, so we will need a bucket and scraper. I would also like a post hole digger, or at least be able to rent one that can hook on to the tractor. We would probably get a trencher (laying pipe seems to never end!). I will also be putting an arena in eventually and will need something to rip/tear up the arena (harrow???). Oh, and hubby likes gardening, so will probably have a little garden. This may be too much stuff for one tractor, but I do have some le-way, since we do have an Artic Cat 500 and an Artic Cat 400...although I don't know what attachments I can get for them (the only thing I have looked for was a manure spreader). We will have to look for something that is pretty inexpensive (few thousand dollars). I don't expect to get all my attachments for that price, but I can gather attachments later (just need to get something that is pretty universal). Also need something less modern (am I in the right place ), so that hubby can work on it, without a computer hooked up to it. I'll thank you in advance for your help! Randi

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
