Can get receiver hitch kits to pull trailers and implement too. Cab with A/C and heat isn’t to hard either. Turf tires and the right mower and you could mow the lawn. We run a big Deere and have a 8’ mower on the front. We have tractors, and tractors with loaders, they don’t get used much compared the the skid loader now. I think we have about 4000 hrs on ours. Deere, Case, Bobcat, Cat, Gehl, all make pretty nice loaders.

Have owned one, then had to rent bigger, and bigger to get the GPM for the bigger implements. They do get used a lot, and soo many choices now, but pricey. Lot people now want tracks on them..
