[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1837120, member: 21382"] Tracks, hand down, not even a discussion. For what you are talking about it is all I would consider. It will drive crossways on a slope or straight across mud you can’t hardly walk on. Only place a tire machine is any good is concrete, asphalt or gravel. They push snow marginally better on asphalt although chains may make a big difference there. As far as cost goes if you are the one running it and have some sense then the cost on tracks isn’t any worse than tires. Where the cost part comes in is when people think you have to slide it hard to turn it or sweep by a pile of #3 rock and fill the tracks with granite baseballs. They don’t last long like that. IMO buy a CAT if you are running it personally, they are the most comfortable to run. JD would be second and is a beast of a machine. Case, Kubota and Bobcat are decent machines, run like hell from a NH. I bet you find you use it more than you think and wonder how you ever went without it. [/QUOTE]
