[QUOTE="Allen, post: 423395, member: 389"] Congrats on the new toy! I personally wouldn't worry about getting chains. Those little MFWD tractors with a loader are tough to get stuck, trust me...I try every winter. The only time it's been stuck is when someone puts the nose too far down into the ditch and it's icy. While you don't have asphalt at your place, you wouldn't really want to run chains on your snow mover once you build out there and have a concrete parking pad and asphalt driveway. Chains are hard as hell on those surfaces, MFWD...not so much. If I were you, I'd pick up a blade or box for the backend. I use a rear facing blade a lot for snow removal trail maintenance and as a ballast for when I am lifting heavy stuff with the bucket. If you can find some old front end tractor weights, you can just hang them on the blade for more weight in the back end. The one thing I wish I had was a box blade for trail maintenance out back.
