No help on a tractor, but you might also want to consider the possibility of upgrading the stock seat with a quality air-ride seat. They can be bought on Amazon and other places. You might also want to add a used tracked tractor to your list to soften the ride, or maybe modifying a wheeled MFWD tractor to tracks.

As for climbing up on the tractor, there are several thoughts that come to mind - most probably not any good. *lol* However, rather than "climbing" steps up and down, if you're any good at fabricating things, might could make an electric lift. Someone stands on the lift, pushes the button, and the lift moves whichever way it needs to go, then stops when it gets there. Would be similar to riding on an escalator, only without the thing moving beforehand. Another idea might be a retractable stairway with hand rail - could have an electric linear actuator or two raise and lower the stairway to provide enough clearance for tractor needs.

Might also help to know what part of the country you're in as well as what all this tractor will be used for; mowing/brush cutting, plowing, tilling, planting, harvesting, discing, etc. Will it have FEL? Flat land or hills? Will the tractor ever go in/around trees, or remain only in open areas?
