The brown may mean that he has a different kind of ballast in there like Beet Juice.

Drive the tractor onto the trailer, not back it on. That will give you more weight on the trailer axles.

If you have water in your storage tank and it is getting into the tractor, then shorten up the feed pipe to the pump in the tank to get it out of the water. Water in the tank should all be on the bottom unless it gets stirred up.

That looks beautiful. Great job

We have had 26.91” of rain and snow melt since January 1 of this year. This is according to my Davis electronic rain gauge that keeps records.

Did your trailer have “China Bombs” on it? Most trailers and RVs come with the cheapest, junk tires on them that the manufacturer can buy. Put on a good quality name brand tire. If you need help finding a good brand, go onto RV forums because there is a lot of good information on there.

Buy yourself 1-2 of these and drop into your storage tank. If you are getting water in the tank, check the fittings at the top of the tank very closely to make sure that they are still sealed up.

Keep your tractor and go buy something appropriate for land clearing. Doesn’t need to be new. Bulldozers work great for leveling, pushing piles of debris, can take out stumps, dig out boulders and so on. Older, used ones can be found very reasonably priced. Excavators work well for digging out...

Not sure why you need window defoggers in Texas. Have run cabbed tractors in cold New England weather for 40 years and never had an occasion that I needed defogger glass for a tractor or industrial loader glass.
