You know Ken, your father-in-law gave you a 1010 and his daughter? Sounds like you're doing pretty well for yourself. But, if you want a loader for the 1010, you wouldn't be the first to do it. If go under pictures on this site and search for "1010", you'll see a few of them, one even has a backhoe as well. Guess what's really important is whether or not the 1010 with a loader will do the job for you. Aint Texas kind of flat? Was when I was stationed there. Turn with your brakes, I do and it aint flat at all. Don't know anything about a 1010, but a 81 yearold retired farmer by me made his own power steering for his AC D14, and it works well. Yep, you can add power steering on a 1010. As for "buying a real loader tractor...", maybe someone'll give you his 400HP air conditioned, articulated job, complete with pop machine, pool table, and auto-piloted GPS, but until then Ken, I'd say that you're way ahead of many.
