I'm looking for a tractor?

Question:I need a tractor to move around dirt for landscaping and to keep the road to my house in good traveling condition. What tractor would be best for my needs.

Answers:
I would assume that you live in the state of California? It helps to know what state you are living in to determine whether or not you will need the tractor for snow removal or not.
Be prepared to spend some big bucks for a tractor with a loader of any kind. What would work best for you is a skid-steer loader. Bobcat, John Deere and New Holland make them. Around $10,000.00 could buy you a good used one with moderate hours and then you could use it to make money doing work for other people if you really needed to or wanted to. Look for SKID-STEER LOADERS in your area with the bucket attachments. Talk to someone who knows loaders and have them look at the one you want to buy so someone doesn't sell you a piece of junk. Happy hunting.
