I have seen a lot of good suggestions below, so I thought I might add my 2 cents worth. This would be my picks of haying tractors under $3,000
IH tractors can be had for well under your costs. I would suggest as others a 300 through 560 with a fast hitch. My personal suggestion would be a 560 diesel. This is the most modern of the bunch and is big small enough to do the work and big enough if you grow.
In an allis I would go with a d-14 through d17. More modern than the WD's and very good tractors
In fords andy of the 600/800 series and clear up into the 3000 and 4000 can sometimes be bought for your budget. These are great tractors for what you are looking for, even though I am not a ford man.
Massy also has good tractors models 35 to 65.
I don't really know enough about the others except for JD and I cant really think of a good JD that will do the work and fit into your price range unless maybe the JD's from the late 50's, and they are probably a bit pricy for what you get.
The reasons for my choices is that they all to the point of being fairly modern, all have live PTO, live hydralics, 3 point hitch or readily avialable conversions, are fairly reliable and easily repaired and most improtantly can be had for your budget.

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
