First of all-thanks everybody for all the advice. It was very helpful and very much appreciated.
Here's the news. After kicking a lot of tires and test driving many brands and models, I finally settled on a JD 2320 with 200CX FEL, pasture shredder, canopy and chain harrow.
Tractor was delivered Saturday evening about 6:00 p.m. (dealer delivered it for free since his driver lives in my area-very nice of them).
Wouldn't you know it-Sunday morning, started that thing up and got to working. By the next time I looked, the sun was going down, the work was (nearly) done (work is never really done around our place), and my shiny new green toy had turned to brown from all the dirt and mud we had been playing in all day. I will say, though, that when I parked it in the shed and put the bucket down, it did have a very satisfied look on its face.
All in all a good day.
