I'm looking to upgrade from a to-20 to something larger with a loader. These two are available in my area at the moment.

They seem very similar, but I'm a novice. Is it hard to add a snowplow setup to either? The 861 is set up for that already, and the backhoe I don't have much use for.
The backhoe I would try and sell if I went that route. Anyone want it?
Long term I plan to brush hog and snow plow and maintain a long gravel driveway with it. Also maintain some gardens. I also need to clear some thick brush and thicket areas, and use a back blade to put in some swales and level out some paths.. 60 hp is more than I need but won't hurt lol.
