Subject: Ideal tractor for older farmer


W.C. Mo.
Background
My Dad, who is 86, backgrounds 5-600 head of calves /year. His loader tractor is wore out. This new(er) tractor will be used to load TMR wagon daily, feed big round bales, scrape feedlots, etc. He also has a JD 7210 which usually stays on the feed wagon. The problem is at 86, his shoulders will no longer allow him to hook up hydraulics on the 7210 when he wants to bushhog pastures, cut hay, etc. I farm 12 miles away and usually drive over to his place 2X to switch tractor back and forth--Dad does not like to bother me every time he wants to change implements.

My question is: what breed of tractors have easy connecting hydraulics, work as a daily loader tractor, can handle a 15 ft bushhog, 10 ft Moco, misc other implements in the same hp requirements, and easy to hook up hydraulics.
thanks
