Tried to trade in a couple older 2wd utility tractors in, no one wanted to trade them since they sell VERY slow compared to mfwd. Only "offer" I had was to put on dealer's lot as consignment.
Is MFWD necessary? NO. Is it nice YES. We got by for years with counter weight and chains on a 2wd loader tractor. The work got done, but painful at times. I've never once wished for MFWD making hay, but wished for it 90% of the time doing loader work, mud, manure & snow.

I would not buy a 2wd tractor unless I planned on NEVER selling it.
