For a first time tractor owner, driver I recommend a lower profile utility with wide front axle over a taller narrow front row crop style just for the safety aspect of having a more stable platform on those rolling pastures.
I understand a limited budget but you'll be better off stepping up to a slightly newer model with live pto, three point hitch gives better options on implements purchases.
AC d-14, d-15 are good, most d-15 have 3 pt hitch
Ford 660, 661, 860, 861, 3000 are all good, love my 4000SU
JD 1010, 1020, 2010, 2020, some later 2 cylinder models had wide front and 3pt hitch, 420 comes to mind
IH 240, 340 utility, 454
Massy 35, 135
Oliver 55, 550
There's other good brands as well but these are the ones I have working knowledge on.
Replacement parts are more available for Ford, JD, IH and Massy.
