How to Choose a Tractor

The tractor is the quintessential machine for any farm, but that’s not the only place it can be helpful. Even if you just have a lot of property, the right tractor can help with all sorts of land management projects. The key is to find the right tractor. Follow our guide from True Value Trailers & Power Equipment and then stop by our location in Florence, Colorado to check out what we have available right now.

Consider Your Property

The first thing you’ll want to consider is the size of your property. Smaller land areas can probably do with more compact tractor models, especially considering they’ll be easier to store. However, if you are a big farm owner, then a big tractor is a must to really capitalize on uptime. 

You might also want to survey the landscape of your property and take note of the terrain and all the hard to reach places, like wooded areas. Bigger tractors may not work as well in tight corners and hills are generally difficult to work with. Consider how these obstacles might affect your final decision.

Consider Your Project

Tractors are among some of the most versatile machines. One tractor can help you accomplish a number of projects that can vary widely in their demands. Generally, the trick is to get the right implement to make these projects easier and tackle the demands with ease. In order to find the right implement for your project and tractor, the first thing you’ll need to know is what sorts of things you’ll be doing on a regular basis. There are a slew of farming-related implements, but you can also use them as forklifts, mowers, and even snowplows. Just let our staff know what you need and we’ll find you the tractor that’s ready for the job.
