It your hills are not too steep I would look for a 35 to 40 H P Ford , Massey, Or Case In late 60's or 70's. A 430 or 530 Case would do the job and probably could be bought cheaper than the others. The N series Fords are not much more than a lawn mower and might get you killed on hills that are much steep. I use a low profile 530 Case I got for 2000.00 that is a bushhogging little brute. It has 12 speeds so you can crawl along in thick stuff, and low profile which allows it to manauver on steep hillsides easily. With todays fuel prices you might think twice about a gas model though. It is amazing how much gas they can suck in. They can be bought much cheaper though so that might make up the differenc if you are not going to use it a lot.
