Both are good tractors, drive them to see which control layout you like better. I'm partial to the Deere, I really like the 2020 I had with a 48 loader. Both prices sound high, but I don't know your location or the actual condition of the machines.
It is usually easier to buy a tractor and loader as a unit rather than separately.

A quick-attach loader is very handy, you can remove or re-install the loader in five to ten minutes.
