If you are doing much fill work at all the skid loader will be light years ahead. They make 3 pt plates (I built mine for less than a hundred) and with aux hydraulics you can use a hydraulic motor in place of a PTO.
If you are getting a loader tractor, be sure and get 4wd. Loader work with dirt kills the front ends of an af tractor. Id also recommend a shuttle shift forward/reverse. Lots of down time stopping to shift, more than you think. I use a 7710 Ford 2wd for farm loader work when I dont want to use the skid loader. Its a good size and while it doesnt have shuttle I do have the 8x4 transmission which is easier than the 8x2 for loader work. Best I've seen are the Kubota 4wd's with power shuttle.
