I don't think you're going to find a unit that won't be a mountain of problems in your budget. They're out there, but you'll look long and hard to find one. Better to get a good 2wd tractor for $10k than a shelled out junker 4wd for $10k.
I can guarantee that your farm is not steeper than mine and I don't have a 4wd tractor. I do sometimes wish I did, but I have gotten by without it for 13 years. You just gotta know how to drive a tractor & 2wd with diff lock will get you by 99% of the time. My next tractor will have 4wd, but my budget will be $35K.
Also, A/C is very nice, but $10k is not likely to get you working A/C. I bought a 210hp 2wd tractor for 16K last April with working A/C that crapped out on it by July. Cost me $1500 to fix it. Cabs without working A/C are just about unbearable to work in. You might be better off with a 4 post canopy tractor in your price range.
Guess I'm saying you either need to raise your price range or lower your options requirements.
