I would like the rubber tracked machine but I'm not sure I need it. I only plan on using it for a month or two in the summer, and to push some snow in the winter.
A rubber tracked machine is great.....if you have another wheeled machine. Tracks aren't cheap and if you don't know how to care for them they will wear...fast. I avoid using mine on anything other than dirt as much as possible. And like others said unless you have steady work renting is the way to go, this way you can get exactly the machine and attachments you need.

I'd love to own an excavator but rent once since I can get the exact size I need for the job. Same with attachments, for under a hundred dollars I can get any attachment I need for the day.
