I would suggest a JD or Kubota in the 30-40 hp, 4x4 , and FEL. The advantage to a tractor is the will reduce your manual work, get things done way faster, open up many options that aren't available without one(left heavy items, digging dirt, tilling gardens, piling limbs, PTO generators, post hole digger,....) Another great thing is they really don't cost you much of anything since they hold value so well. Most MAJOR BRAND tractors you can buy and in 10 years they will bring about what you gave for them. If you could buy a good used one with low hours, I would strongly consider it.
