B7800 or L3130

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( It worked great, although the tractor had a tendency to lift the front wheels going uphill with the bucket on float. The back tires will keep you moving forward but you lose steering.. the solution was to plow downhill as much as possible.

I have the same problem with both my TN and Ford 2120. Steering with the rear brakes works great when pushing snow.

Hey, Why didn't I think of that.. steering with the rear brakes in the snow! I read something the other day that says you're brain starts fading after age 40.. maybe that explains it!

If money's an issue (and it's always an issue) take a look at the L2800/3400. No HST, but I don't miss it .

I heard from a dealer today that the L2800/3400 will likely become available as Hydro next year. It's a nice size machine....right in between the 3130 and the 7800.
