I live between Tulsa and Oklahoma City.
We have 40 acres right now. 30 are in horse pasture.
My wife has horses and a 120x200 riding arena.
What I am looking for is a tractor that she can brushhog our 30 acres once or twice a year (our land is long and narrow, so only 660ft wide) and something that she can drag around her arena to keep it smooth and soft for horses. Once she had a drag she would do this quite often.
I would also like to be able to move round bales...either push them or move with a spike on the 3 point.
She recently sold a horse and has about 1500-1750 to spend.
My first thought was she needs an 8n. Then I am reading about the PTO doesnt stop and can push her through a fence and down a cliff etc...Sooooo.....maybe not. I thought that "Live PTO" fixed that....but now I think I have wrong terminology.
When she uses the arena drag...it would be for only a few minutes at a time...is that hard on a tractor? Not getting fully warm etc?
Can you help me understand what I need?
