After operating several loader equipped tractors to feed cattle, move snow, and pile/haul manure I would go with the MFWD every time.
65 horsepower 2wd without cab was OK
115 horsepower 2wd with a cab was better

On a 2wd tractor with a loader 90% of your problems with getting stuck or spinning is due to the weight on the front wheels and them "pushing" more than turning/spinning. With the MFWD tractor Dad currently has, the front tires are large enough to keep turning and float over most of what used to cause the other tractors to "push" I don't believe he has even needed to kick in the MFWD yet.
If you can afford the MFWD, it is 10x better and will hold value better.
