Stay away from those little fords. There not heavy enough for a loader and pushing dirt. I am very biased on that so others will tell you different. For me that little tractor is made for a market garden and mowing lawns and nothing but.
I am not sure what tractor price is like for you there,.. but I bought a 1070 on auction for $3000 in working condition. The cab looked awful and no lights worked no heater fan working but still a cheap but good tractor. The loader for it sat beside and sold for $400. I know there are a lot of 970 1070 and even 30 series tractors that need a little repair for that kind of money.
I really like my 1650 cocksutt with a loader(paid $2000 and sold it later for $2200, should have never sold it so now I have bought 2 more like it) and that is what built my yard and worked my 100 acres for the first 5 years before I bought a bigger field tractor.
Again prices may be very different in your area. To me a tractor with a little more size won't just spin when you try to move dirt and snow. If you are talking only a flat ground and 20 yards of dirt and gravel in a year you may just be able to do it with the little fords. put some chains on it for winter and snow may not be to deep there I don't know. I have always been in the rolling hills and 3-4 ft drifts so I have a negative about small tractors.
around here you can buy allis and duetz and IH tractors cheap. 986, 966. go under $5000 all the time. Another one is massey 1100, 1135 and such go real cheap as well.
Look at bigger and drive a few and see if you would like them for occasional use.
I like diesel but if you are only going there when it is cold out and have to walk the driveway to the yard to fire up and plow you may want a gas, I don't know.
