I have a need for a tractor but don't have a lot to spend. I am selling a small fishing boat I don't use much to finance part of it. (I am in Texas)
<ul type="square">[*]I have a few rent houses and one is on 2 acres. So what I would be using it for is:
[*]shredding (brush hogging?)
[*]box blade for smoothing out some dirt I am buying to fill in low spots
[*]occaisional pulling of small trees
[*]would like a tractor that I could get a front end loader for later...
[*]I don't care how ugly or old it is, long as it will do some "occaisional" work for me.
[*]I would probably use it once a month
[/list]
So my questions:
1) Are there any $2,000 (+/-) tractors out there that can do all of that?
2) What should I be looking for (models etc)?
3) What HP tractor should I be looking for?
4) If my $2K is not enough, how much will I have to spend?
Any help is appreciated.

Oh ya, and it would have to fit on my 16' lowboy bumper pull utility trailer. I don't want something so huge that I would need a gooseneck trailer.
