Well I've got both. A CX2501 with cab and front blower will cost more like 40k. A rear blower is cheaper but tiring to look back especially with a cab. A ranger with blade will work initially until the snow gets hard and starts to pile up. The Ranger is more fun all around. I was also considering tracks but if you leave it outside they are difficult to start in cold weather. A tractor with FEL is always being used for pushing, pulling, lifting, mowing, tilling. Hard choice but if you keep looking you might be able to buy used ones. On an acreage an ideal tractor is usually in the 30hp range.
