Unfortunately, bo is right. $4000 just isn't going to buy a useful tractor. However, if you spend a LOT of time looking, and are patient, I think you can do it cheaper than the $10-15K number he gave you. Ya oughta be able to buy NEW for those kind of bucks. A 20 to 30 horse diesel utility, be it a Ford, Kubota, Deere, Massey or whatever will do a fine job for you. The trick is to find a good used one at a price you can afford. I WOULD plan on spending in the neighborhood of $8000 to get one you can use NOW and not have to put money into repairs before you can use it.
