John, My 2 cents worth: 1) The old-timers I know would never think of trying to push stumps with a tractor, rent a CAT. 2) I plow snow at -25 with my tractor. It has box blade and loader. Trying to move a lot of snow with just a plow on a truck is a waste of time. Having the loader allows you to put the snow where you want it, and dig out huge drifts if you need to. Dress warmly, It's actually fun! 3) If the field is so wet you think you need 4WD you probably ought not be to working the soil anyway. 4) I have an Oliver 1650, 66 hp., 3 pt., live/independent PTO, live hydraulics front & rear power steering, etc. It would seem to be the perfect tractor for you but mine is NOT for sale! Good luck to you! Dean
