Both tractors will easily meet your needs. Are you a tinkerer who likes to work on machinery? According to my research, the last 2020 was built in 1971. Maintenance and repair will not be done without expensive parts. However the $5000 rice difference will buy a lot of parts IF you can do all the maintenance yourself.
Given your choice and if the overheating is caused by a minor problem, my personal choice would probably be the Kubota. Fewer hours, a cab (I live in Montana), and two remotes.
If you decide to purchase the Kubota, find out what the cause of the overheat is. Many municipal tractors are not properly maintained. Since it's a diesel, check to see that the air filter is clean. Check the radiator to see if there are bubbles in the coolant when it runs that could indicate a headgasket problem. Finally, verify that the radiator fins and the AC condensor are indeed full of dirt and chaff. $11000 is a lot to pay for a tractor that may have some engine problems from the get go.
