Depending on how steep the hills are you may want to consider a lifted golf
cart with dump box as a less expensive alternative.  Very user friendly, and
you'd be surprised at how well you can actually get around with one of
these.

I agree with Chuck.  I think you'll be much better satisfied with a side by
side seating type ATV.
Some come with a small dump bed on the rear and with a place to hitch a
trailer.  There are lots of brands out there from most of the motorcycle and
jet ski manufacturers as well as John Deere.
I don't know who builds the one for JD.

a Kawasaki Mule, or Polaris Ranger? would do you good Don. These are both
auto style seating. I am assuming that your leg might not be happy with
straddling a traditional 4-wheeler. Both have cargo hauling space.
