We have one cab tractor but I hardly ever use it during the winter months. I will chain it up for clearing roads if we get a heavy snow, but for the normal 2-5" snows we get I hardly mess with road clearing, county plows and salts the blacktop up the hill and just past my house, everything else is chip & seal or gravel and doesn't get plowed.
We have around 30 cows plus calves on each of the two farms 6 miles apart, here I'll put out round bales with the 4000 or 5000, at the other place I use the 5600, all open station, I can get done quicker and have less trouble using a lighter open station tractor.
Only have to travel 1/4 mile or less setting out hay so only takes about 30 minutes at each place.
