Subject: Deere skidsteers tracks vs tires and sizes


North central ND
What would be better for farm use, most of the hours are pushing snow and in the summer mainly moving around shuttles of spray and a little gravel work. Currently don’t use it much out in the field for picking rocks or trees but maybe would if we had tracks? Looking at a 325g with tracks or 332g on tires, price is about the same and not sure if we need that much lifting power but nobody has ever complained about having too much. Would a 325 be able to lift a full shuttle onto the top of a dash spray deck? Currently have a 317 on tires and it does lift a shuttle but not without rocking back and forth or lifting too high, and likes to leave ruts everywhere it goes even if it’s just a little wet.

Edit: ran a bobcat on tracks a little last summer and loved the ride, I’m guessing it’s about the same on both? Everybody around here says it’s about a horse a piece as far as snow, especially if you got bald tires like we do.
