With 20 acres and lots of downed trees: Are you planning to move and save the trees or burn them? If the option is to move them, a tractor with a Farmi winch makes more sense. While you can lift heavy logs, on flat or nearly level land, it makes more sense to drag them, and you can drag much more weight than you could dream of lifting.
For my 2 cents: As you are new to tractors, having a known dealer nearby can be a plus. While "name" brands might be more expensive, you get what you pay for. I have had my 'used' Kubota for over 20 years now and I have never had to call the dealer except for replacing 2 hydraulic hoses.
My nephew runs a maple syrup operation. In 2009, he purchased a new Kubota L3130HST for use there. In 2010, he purchased a 170 acre wood lot that he uses for maple syrup production. On it, he taps the maple trees and thins the woods for firewood. The wood lot is 3 miles from his main maple sugar operation. In 2013, he purchased a used Kubota L3130HST (4WD) with 2200hrs and with LA723 FEL and the subframe for the backhoe attachment, which he also owned on his other L3130. He did that so he would not have to truck the other tractor back and forth to the wood lot. He also purchased a Farmi winch. With that tractor, FEL, and Farmi winch he manages the woods on that lot. The land is hilly and the Farmi also allows him to make and maintain some crude roads. The winch allows him to skid logs out from steep hilly areas he would not drive on. He also has a used 60" snow blower that he uses to clear the main entrance road to the wood lot. With a few issues to be fixed, he paid $13,200 for the tractor, but it was well under $25k. He has now had that used tractor for 10 years, it starts in cold VT weather, and it still runs strong.
