I also was nervious about running a tractor with a narrow front end. However, after owning one, I must admit I like it much better for mowing. trailering, etc than the wide front end machine that I have. The narrow front is much more manurvable than the wide front, backing a trailor is easier also. I have the rear tires set wide to help keep the tractor more stable and use caution when driving it on the hills. When I need to load the tractor on a trailor I just reset the width of the rear tires.
Research, research, research, is about all I can suggest for you as to what type of tractor to look for. I suggest that you read the archeives on this web site, in those you will find tons of information on each type of tractor. You will find that most of the questions you have, or will have, some one else has had and been answered. You will also find that all makes and models have thier own unique quirks and issues. You will also start to find patterns developing for each make and model of tractor. Decide from that which tractor you should seek out.
Take your time! Look at many tractors, try to drive as many as you can. Mechanics are of the utmost importance and paint will hide alot of sins. Also, new paint will not help the tractor run/operate any better.
Just my thoughs. Hope they help.
