One factor you need to keep in mind is - how close are you to a dealership that will take care of you if you need parts or service you can't do yourself? That might determine the brand for you! $2000 can buy you a good little tractor, but likley not more than something pretty basic. You seem to want something small, and that's fine...but smaller does NOT mean cheaper. An old Farmall Cub that's in good shape will give you many hours of work. An International Super A has more power, and won't take up much more space. $2000 may not find a real good one in many parts of the country. I've got nothing against the Ford models, but if you're looking for something that big, a few more $$ can get you an Interantional utility model (300, 350, or some newer ones) that will probably have live hydraulics and pto, and are nearly indestructible. Massey Ferguson put out some tough utility models in the early to mid-70s, also.
