I would want it with a loader Just to make sure the front goes where I want it and not sliding into a ditch or rut
4wd is like a pistol, you never need it until you need it! But when you need it it is worth whatever it costed you.

2wd gets you stuck in wet grass.
I'd never consider a tractor with 2wd. 4wd is a must. So many reasons to have it. You'll need it.
I agree with that. So many times ive been stuck on my tractor and just reached down and put in 4x4 and easily gotten out from something id have to went and got a truck or something to pull me out of.

Trucks and tractors- Never buy anything but 4WD.

4wd does two things, helps with loader work and gets more HP to the ground when pulling. A must have IMO.

It's very easy to identify people who know absolutely nothing about tractors.
They're always the ones who say, "you gotta have a 4wd".
For the most part, a 4wd tractor will do nothing that a regular tractor won't. It does come in handy with a loader, if equipped with the right transmission. But it'll make no difference pulling most implementation or almost anything else a farm tractor is used for.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.

4WD isn't necessary, until you really need it.

New tractors need 4wd because they are a lightweight POS.
That's pretty much sums up all you need to know on the subject.
Get a 4wd if you are getting a new machine... you'll need it as soon as you hook up anything other than a Bush Hog.
4wd is all about overcoming an array of shortcomings and other inadequacies that can't be covered up with shiny new paint.

If you don't believe me load it down with a big disc and reach down and flip the 4wd off halfway across the field. That front drive-train adds at least 15 hp to the unit.

If you don't think you need a 4wd tractor, go rent or borrow a 4wd tractor, put it in 2wd and drive around doing work for a weekend. You'll spin out at least twice, and need to use 4wd. I would just quit while I was ahead.
