Utility Tractor with loader

Now I've got the itch to get a tractor with a loader on it. I've been looking for something fairly small with a loader in the "under $4,000" category and can't seem to find anything locally. I've seen some 300 Ute's in the $3k range but without a loader. I want live hydraulics and would like to have a 3 point so I could use that tractor for road work and the loader and use my M for field type work with the mower and possibly in the future discing and stuff like that.

I really don't need a loader tractor, but talking with friends they said that I would be amazed at all the things I would find to use it for if I had one. I am not sure about putting a loader on the M but have thought about that option as well. I live on 42 acres and my driveway is about 1,500' long.

Any recommendations other than be patient and keep my eyes open? Should I stick with Red or be open to look at other brands?

Thanks for any input.

If I were looking for a loader tractor, I think I'd look somewhere else.
