It depends if you run

Depends upon the condition of these radios. One is very old and the other one is getting pretty old. The old tube radios sound better - IMO; but if it needs to be overhauled - it is no bargain (electrolytic caps, tubes, and alignment). The 2000 is a decent radio too - even if it is solid state. The 2000 may also need new capacitors and an alignment. Bottom line is just how well these radio choices were serviced.

Cobra or Browning???? Uniden still makes radios ...Browning stopped what, about 30 years ago?? Do some research.

Then; I would say the Browning.
But it will need to be refurbished . . .
