Actually I mention both twice on the first and second page, but there's 4 pages now.
I'm using a Massey Ferguson TO35 right now. I like the independent PTO for emergency stopping of the PTO, but it's too small and I know it. I'd like to get a 50 to 60ish HP instead, but before I do I'm trying to figure out what I should be looking for.
So far the consensus seems to be I should just get a newer Kubota or John Deere, or, some variant of PowerShift. I'm liking all the model suggestions for my list, such as the recently mentioned Allis Chalmers 175 among others.

4x4 (might be moving to Alaska in the next few years)
with a loader

However I'm not sure how realistic that all is, especially the weight with the loader and 4x4. 4x4 isn't even a necessity, just trying to plan ahead for Alaska.
