And ultimately you're going to require a variety for your workouts or you will just get good at "treadclimbing" and your workouts will suffer. I'd get a curved treadmill for joint preservation and variety, and a cheap spin bike for intensity workouts. There's not much that can go wrong with a curved treadmill or a spin bike.
The used TC20's around here seem to be going for 800-1000. I think it has different programmed workouts. I'll look into the curved treadmills. Haven't given up totally on the idea of a spin bike so will keep them in mind as well.
