I would tend to differ with you about using a skid steer on a hill. The NewHolland derived Deere he's looking at would generally be a lot more stable on most slopes than any compact utility tractor in the same power class. Mud... that I totally agree with you.

I find are very manageable. You just learn what minimum balance weight is required on the front to drive up a steep hill. Usually an empty bucket is sufficient.... but no attachment or just a light attachment like a bale spike may not be enough. They're not the machine for every situation but in some cases are very much a more versatile machine than a tractor. I would be lost without my NH LS170.
