Forget the Cub, here in NJ you can pay more for a smaller Farmall than the big boys. If your drive is paved, you should look into a 4 wheel drive, unless you like chain marked all over your freshly sealed pavement.
If you have the space I would get a H or M. I used to plow my uncles farm drive in his later years with both. The M had a frame mounted front
blade and the H had a blade that bolted to a manure loader. Both cleared his drive, over 1500' for 45 years. A loader surely comes in handy for alot of different things, including logs and picking up trees when your chain saw is stuck. As for the four wheel drive, gonna have to shell out the big wallet. We have a 24 hp Kubota, which we use in our nursery for spraying and brush hogging. The only other thing that it is good for is mounting a belly mower under and cutting your grass. BTW, paid $11,000.00 for it new.
We also have a Ford 2120 4wd with front end loader, this is very useful for snow when our bigger backhoe is down. With a thousand hours, it is worth over $13,000.00 now.
Confused, Good luck!
