Hi guys new to the forum, looking for some advice on what machine to buy. I have 25 acres, 3 acres pasture, 2 acres old gravel pit the rest forest. I cut a lot of firewood, have a small farm and would like to start composting materials in my old pit and move some gravel for my own needs. I also have a part time landscape business and do a tractor job every now and again. Current choices

New Holland/ Ford 455D Loader Bradco removable hoe (3 point hitch access) http://www.orchardhillsales.net/199...--backhoe--inventory.htm?id=971227&in-stock=1

Bobcat B200 (no 3pth) http://providence.craigslist.org/hvo/5632560523.html

Kubota L35/ L48 (3pth) http://www.machinerytrader.com/list...nt/for-sale/11955263/kubota-l35?OHID=11955263

Ford 2120 or similar 40hp 4x4 tractor with loader http://nh.craigslist.org/grd/5622317740.html

I just sold the John Deere 2350 but still have the little bx kubota to use for small stuff

I can move everything but the 455D with my current truck trailer. I guess my question is, is it worth having to pay to move a machine to jobs if it is capable and does everything I need. Thanks. If anyone in New England has anything similar for sale let me know
